Description

The Playhouse Theatre, dating from the early to mid 19th century, was originally a chapel. It is a stone building featuring two tiers of windows, with the upper ones being round-arched. The main (south) elevation is framed by a pair of strip pilasters and includes a disused Greek Doric entrance portico. There is a low addition to the east that is not of interest. The interior has been remodelled. The entrance gateway consists of a pair of thin corniced stone piers that support an enriched iron arch with a hexagonal lamp. The gates and railings to the north of the east are made of iron and topped with spear finials.
