Description

Bell House is a hotel that has been converted into shop premises, built around 1820. It is constructed of dressed stone, with watershot stone at the rear, and features a graduated stone slate roof. The building has a double-depth, three-bay plan, with three storeys plus a basement, and an additional fourth bay to the right that includes a coach arch. The exterior is characterized by raised quoins and an eaves cornice.

The central door, which is now blocked, originally had a fanlight, archivolt, and pediment. A similar door design is found in a small additional bay to the left. Later shop windows have been inserted on either side, and there is a segmental carriage arch in the fourth bay supported by rusticated square columns, with pedestrian ways on either side. Each upper floor features three triple sash windows without glazing bars, along with a single sash window above the door. All windows have square-cut surrounds and separating mullions. The building is topped with ridge and gable chimney stacks, and there are taking-in doors at the rear, along with similar windows.
