Description
The Hind Hotel is an inn that has been converted into a hotel, originally built in the late 17th century or early 18th century, with a front added in the mid-19th century. It features plastered brick on a plinth, with a moulded platband over the ground floor. The building has a coped parapet that rises at the ends and in the center, leading to a plain tiled roof with four hipped dormers. There are ridge stacks located in the center and at both ends of the roof.
The structure is two stories tall with attics, displaying slightly irregular fenestration that includes eight windows on the first floor and six on the ground floor. All windows are 12-pane hornless sashes, except for a tripartite sash window on the first floor at the extreme left. Each window features raised keyblocks. To the left of the center, there is a wide segment-headed archway with double panelled doors that leads to a coaching yard at the rear. To the right of the center, there is a panelled door with a transom light above it. The rear of the building has gables with inset round windows and various gabled wings, likely dating from the late 17th or early 18th century.
Inside, there is an 18th-century staircase with a narrow well, turned balusters, and a rising string. An inglenook fireplace is present, along with a panelled cupboard featuring H-hinges. The later 19th-century public house partitions are still intact.
