Description
Prince's Dock Chambers and The Quayside Public House is a building that originally consisted of five houses, now serving as offices and a public house. It was constructed in the early 19th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and again in the mid and late 20th century. The structure is made of brick with ashlar dressings and features gabled and hipped slate roofs, along with a wooden gutter and brackets.
The building has three storeys and an 11-window range. The central section, which has six windows, showcases a channelled rusticated ashlar ground floor with three half-glazed doors and segmental overlights. There are three groups of three windows, primarily 20th-century casements; the three windows on the left are flat-headed, while the others are segment-headed. Above this, there are six windows, mostly plain sashes with keystone lintels. The top section features five smaller windows of various types, with the third window replaced by a hatch, all having keystone lintels.
No.26, located to the left, has two plain sashes with keystone lintels, and above it, to the right, is a smaller casement with a similar lintel. To its left, there is a larger four-light late 20th-century casement. The ground floor includes a late 20th-century stone-clad shop front with a transomed three-light casement on the left and a pair of doors with an overlight on the right.
The public house, situated to the right, features three renewed plain sashes and, above, three tilting casements, all with keystone lintels. The ground floor has a renewed wooden shop front designed in a late 19th-century style, featuring a central glazed door flanked by three-light windows with leaded toplights. The right return, facing Posterngate, has three plain sashes with keystone lintels on the right and a top-hung casement to their left. Above, there are two eight-pane sashes with keystone lintels, and the ground floor presents five plain sashes with keystone lintels.
