The Raven Hotel

The Raven Hotel is a public house built in 1904 by the architectural firm Heaton, Ralph and Heaton. It features a slightly altered design and is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with sandstone dressings and a slate roof. The building has a narrow elongated plan that runs at right angles to the street and is designed in the Edwardian Baroque style.

The exterior consists of three storeys above cellars and has two very unequal bays. A prominent cornice runs over the ground floor, with another cornice above the second floor that features egg-and-dart enrichment. The shaped parapet has a central panel inscribed with "1904" and is topped by a large semicircular pediment that contains a painted raven in relief, accompanied by raised lettering that reads "RAVEN HOTEL," flanked by large ball finials. The ground floor includes a doorway to the left, which is set beneath a pedimented concave upstand also labeled "RAVEN HOTEL," and a four-light window to the right. All these openings are framed by a continuous stone architrave, with brackets supporting the cornice above the window. On the upper floors, there are one-light windows above the door in the narrow bay, and a wide two-storey canted oriel in the other bay, which features stone mullions, wooden transoms, and a moulded cornice.

Inside, the hotel has glazed pale green wall tiling with Art Nouveau foliation, a mahogany panelled bar and partitions (some of which have been interrupted or removed), and a Jacobean-style staircase.
