Description
The former Shotley Spa Saloon is a spa saloon building, now used as a house, dating from around 1838 and built for Jonathan Richardson. It is constructed of coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a Welsh slate roof. The building is one storey high and has three bays. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed panelled double door beneath a four-pane overlight, all set in a raised stone surround with a label mould. The flanking windows are stone-mullioned two-light casements with glazing bars, treated similarly. Corner pilasters support the wide eaves of the low-pitched roof, which has side eaves and a rear square stone chimney.
