Description
The Green Dragon Hotel is a hotel and shop located on Broad Street in Hereford, dating from around 1857. The building is constructed of stucco and features a slate roof with various brick stacks. It has a symmetrical plan, with 20th-century bays added to the north side.
The exterior consists of three storeys, an attic, and a cellar, with a 19-window range. The windows are plain sashes with moulded architraves and hoods, including two tripartite sashes. A continuous cast-iron balcony runs along the front, and the fenestration is complemented by a sill band. The façade is adorned with pilasters featuring enriched capitals, a moulded frieze, and a central entablature topped by a dragon. The parapet has a balustrade and various finials. The ground floor is finished in engraved stucco with vermiculated quoins, featuring part-glazed panelled double doors with an overlight and a later cast-iron canopy. There are plain sashes and, to the left, two three-light windows with moulded glazing bars.
Inside, the lobby showcases decorative plasterwork, and the staircase is fitted with cast-iron and turned balusters, leading to a panelled hall. The dining room features 20th-century panelling, panelled ceiling beams, and a plasterwork ceiling. The Judge's Room includes panelling and a plasterwork ceiling with pendants, along with a chamfered stone fireplace that has a carved lintel. In the cellar, there is reused 20th-century panelling and 19th-century balusters.
