Description
Imperial Court is an early 19th-century building that was originally the front elevation of the Queen Hotel on Market Street. The structure is built of ashlar and features a hipped stone slate roof. It stands three storeys high and has stone brackets supporting the gutter. There are ten ranges of sash windows, with the six northernmost on the first floor featuring a continuous balcony adorned with an ornamental cast iron balustrade. A modern panelled door is set in the original opening.
The building includes a trabeated archway leading to the Queen Tap Yard, which has stone setts beneath it. There is also a segment-headed archway with plain impost blocks leading to the Imperial Arcade, where cast iron gates ramp upwards towards the centre. The front facing the Imperial Arcade was originally the rear of the building and has eight ranges of sash windows on the first and second floors, along with modern shop fronts.
