Three houses in one composition, now all in one as hotel. c.1840, altered. Stucco, painted white, with slate roof. Irregular H-plan formed by long main range with wings, plus projected porch. Gothick style. Two storeys, a 1:3:1 window range, the 3-bay centre breaking forwards slightly (2-storey gabled porch projected from this) and linked by short re-entrants to projected gabled wings; with plinth, sill-band to the centre, and coped parapet stepped over gables. The porch has a segmental-pointed arched outer doorway with hoodmould, a window in each side matching this, a similarly arched inner doorway with geometrical traceried fanlight, a band stepped up in the centre to the sill of sashed cross-window at 1st-floor window which has margin panes and hoodmould, and gable coping with kneelers and finial. The other windows at 1st floor match this except for small inserted windows in the re-entrants; the ground floor has canted bay windows to the wings, that to the right with similar margin-paned sashes but that left (which is larger) with 4-pane sashed glazing, and large tripartite sashes to the 2nd and 4th bays. Ridge chimney to right of centre. Rear and interior not inspected.
