Lion Hotel and Prospect House

The Lion Hotel and Prospect House are a pair of houses built in the early 19th century, with some minor later additions and alterations. They feature a combination of cement-rendered brick and uncoursed limestone rubble, complete with a plinth and imitation angle quoins. The low-pitched hipped slate roof has deep eaves, a red brick ridge stack at the center, and an integral end stack on the right side. The buildings stand three storeys tall with a cellar and have six windows, with a wider gap in the center. The windows are glazing bar sashes with margin lights on the sides and top, with reduced proportions on the top floor.

Each house has a central entrance; Prospect House on the left has a 20th-century diagonally boarded door and a 19th-century rectangular barred overlight within a stone doorcase supported by Doric columns, topped with a plain moulded entablature. The Lion Hotel features a recessed six-panel door (with the upper panels now glazed) and a rectangular overlight beneath a stone Doric porch with a plain moulded entablature. There is a stone mounting block attached to the right return, along with 19th-century service ranges and outbuildings at the rear. Notably, the border with Wales runs north-south through the main part of the building.
