Description

The Newbus Arms Hotel is a country house that has been converted into a hotel. It is marked on the Ordnance Survey map as Newbus Grange and is possibly from the early 17th century, though it underwent significant alterations and extensions around 1820. The building features rendered brick and rubble construction with graduated green slate roofs and rendered chimney stacks. It has a front range with two parallel rear wings and displays Regency Gothick architectural details.

The entrance front is three stories high and has three bays. It features a wide central porch with a Tudor-arched doorway and four-pane sidelights, which are framed by thin buttresses. On either side of the porch are flanking three-light bow windows, also with similar framing buttresses. Both the porch and the bow windows are topped with elaborate embattled parapets. The top floor contains two-light windows above the porch and three-light windows in the outer bays, all under hoodmoulds, with casements that have Perpendicular-style wood tracery. Each bay is crowned with small gables featuring footstones. The roof is low-pitched with end and ridge stacks.

To the left, there is an added one-storey, two-bay wing that has a projecting semi-octagonal bay, similar two-light windows, and a steep pyramidal roof. The garden front is three stories high and has five bays, with the second bay projecting and canted, containing three windows. There are glazed doors in the second and fourth bays, as well as in an extruded porch with a verandah above on the left bay. The window details on this side are similar to those on the entrance front, and the embattled parapets conceal low-pitched roofs with transverse ridge stacks.

The interior was fitted in the late 19th century and features Perpendicular-style panelling, doors, and chimney-pieces. There are 20th-century additions on the right return and rear that are not of interest.
