Bridge Hotel

The Bridge Hotel is a public house built around 1899 by Cackett, Burns Dick for J. Fitzgerald. It features an ashlar ground floor, a second floor and turret, and a first floor made of Flemish bond brick, topped with a graduated slate roof. Designed in the Art Nouveau style, the building has three storeys and three bays, with the central bay being wider and the outer bays projecting slightly, including a turret on the right bay.

The ground floor has a high plinth with Tuscan Order attached columns, and double doors set in architraves in the end bays, which are topped by segmental pediments with carved tympana. There are curved windows beside the doors and two shallow curved bow windows in the centre, all featuring pictorial stained glass overlights. The first floor has a high fascia with a central bracket to the cornice that bows out under a wide curved oriel. Above, there are paired sash windows.

The left projecting bay has a keyed flat brick arch over the first floor sash and paired sashes in an arched surround, with attached central columns to all paired sashes. The right projecting bay has a similar first-floor sash under two slits, a prominent cornice with projecting diagonal spouts, and a high ramped parapet with cartouches supporting squat pilasters. The wide bracketed eaves over the lantern feature deep dentils, and there is a high pyramidal roof over the left bay and diagonally over the lantern. The end chimney is made of brick and ashlar. Inside, the hotel showcases a high-quality mahogany chimney piece and fittings.
