Description
The Anchor Hotel is a hotel built in the 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of stone, with some areas rendered, and features a slate roof and stone gable stacks, although the ridge stack has been rebuilt in brick on an old base. The front elevation has three storeys and five windows, and is rendered. There is a 20th-century stone porch and various types of 19th-century sash windows.
The right elevation, which faces the river, includes a round-headed stair window with radial glazing. The rear elevation features a projecting two-storey wing on the left, made of squared stone with tooled quoins and dressings, topped with a hipped slate roof. The ground floor of this wing has a small projecting porch with a round-headed door and a fanlight that has intersecting glazing bars, alongside two tall 12-pane sash windows to the right. The first floor has a blind window and two 12-pane sashes, all with slightly projecting sills. The area wall to the wing is made of squared stone with a plinth, chamfered coping, and renewed railings.
The building is listed mainly for the rear wing, which served as the former Rent House for the Greenwich commissioners.
