Description
The Former Macclesfield Arms Hotel is a late 18th-century building that is currently disused and has been converted into offices. It features Flemish bond brickwork and a Welsh slate roof. The main block stands four storeys high and has a five-window range with a central entrance. The entrance is highlighted by a reeded and roll-moulded painted stone architrave and a radial cast-iron fanlight. The lower windows are boarded over, while the upper windows consist of 16-pane sashes, with 8-pane sashes in the attic storey, all having flat-arched gauged brick heads that are now painted over. The building has painted stone sills. On either side of the main block are lower pavilion wings, each two storeys tall, featuring Palladian windows on the first floor, with the lower windows also boarded over, all set within full-height segmentally-arched recesses. The building is topped with axial stacks.
