Description
The Queen's Arms Hotel is an 1830 hotel built of dressed sandstone, with a hipped slate roof and side wall chimneys. It stands on a rectangular plan of five bays by three. The symmetrical building is three storeys high and designed in a simple classical style. It features a moulded cornice, a low parapet, and doorways with simple surrounds and cornices, situated centrally on both the front and right return walls. The ground floor windows are vertically rectangular with altered glazing, while the upper floors have sash windows; those on the second floor are shorter. The interior has been altered. Historically, the hotel was built on a new crossing point of the Burnley-Bury and Blackburn-Todmorden turnpike roads, and was formerly used as a courthouse and town hall in the earlier 19th century.
