Description

The Eagle Hotel, now a public house, shops, and flats, was originally built in 1760 on the site of an earlier building for the 5th Duke of Devonshire, with extensions added around 1780-1790. It was later converted in the late 20th century. The building is constructed of ashlar gritstone and coursed dressed gritstone with ashlar dressings, finished with Welsh slate roofs, coped gables, kneelers, and stone stacks.

The building comprises an original right-hand block, extended to the left under the same roof line, and with a rear wing. The main front has nine windows arranged in a 4:5 configuration, with a central bay projecting slightly and featuring rusticated pilaster strips. The central doorway has a 20th-century door and glazed overlight within a moulded ashlar surround, supported by console brackets and topped with a pediment. The upper floors have 2/2 sash windows within moulded surrounds, with smaller 3/3 sashes on the third floor. A three-storey wing to the right has 2/2 sashes on each floor, with smaller 3/3 sashes on the third floor. Further to the left, a three-story wing has a tripartite 20th-century shopfront, above which are four tall glazing bar sash windows in ashlar surrounds, and four smaller, similar windows linked by a sill band. The left return has a single glazing bar sash window on the lower floors, three similar windows on the third floor, and two smaller windows in the garret. A set-back wing to the left features a projecting 20th-century entrance to the Market Place Arcade, a two-story canted bay window, and two glazing bar sash windows. Above these windows are four similar windows, followed by five smaller sashes. A projecting wing to the left has a single window to the ground floor of its return, and a smaller window to the top floor. A single-story wing beyond has glazing bar windows.

The interior of the earlier block shows crude, re-used timbers in one of the rear rooms. The staircase now rises from the rear of the left-hand entrance hall, returning over the hallway, with a wreathed handrail and shaped strings. A cellar is also present. The later block features a large stairwell with a wreathed handrail on the ground floor, variously moulded handrails on the upper floors, and rectangular iron balusters. The first floor features panelled window surrounds and doorways with deep panelled architraves. Ornate plaster consoles, recesses, a corner fireplace, and boxed beams are also present. The second floor has deep panelled doorways. The partitioned attic has a queen post roof construction.
