Description
The former assembly room at the rear of Number 45 Broad Street in Leominster is a building dating from around 1800. It was originally part of an inn and is now vacant. The structure is made of brick with a hipped Welsh slate roof and has a brick stack at the rear. It stands three storeys tall and features a three-window range, including canted oriels with underhangs and 6/6 sash windows beneath moulded cornices. To the left, there is a transom window set under a segmental arch, with another transom window above it. The ground floor has three temporarily blocked mullion lights.
Inside, the ground floor is a plain room that was likely used as a supper room. The assembly room itself includes a gallery with wrought-iron railings and a mahogany handrail. It features a small hob grate in a plain surround, six-panel doors, panelled shutters, and a plaster cornice with a ceiling rose. This assembly room is a simple yet well-preserved space that was once part of the Britannia Inn, now known as Number 45 Broad Street.
