The Idsall Rooms, Park House Hotel

The Idsall Rooms at Park House Hotel is a house that has been converted into part of a hotel. It was built in 1699, as indicated by the date on a stone above the central first-floor window. The building features a mid-18th century addition on the left and a mid-19th century addition on the right. It is constructed of red brick and has a hipped 20th-century tiled roof.

The building stands three storeys high and includes a plinth, rendered quoins, and plat bands. It has a moulded wooden eaves cornice and paired end stacks. The façade consists of five bays with glazing-bar sash windows that have flush boxes, orange brick dressings, gauged heads, and scrolled keystones decorated with painted floral motifs. There are four segmental curved steps leading to the central door, which has six raised and fielded panels, a plain architrave, and a radial fanlight. Above the door is a heavy semicircular hood with an egg and dart moulded cornice and large console brackets featuring carved acanthus decoration. The first floor has arched glazing-bar sashes in the second and third bays from the right.

The mid-18th century addition to the left is also made of red brick and has a hipped 20th-century tiled roof. It is two storeys tall, with a plat band and coved plaster cornice. This section has one bay, featuring a ground floor sash without glazing bars and a first floor glazing-bar sash with a flush box and keyed plaster lintel. The mid-19th century addition to the right is similarly constructed of red brick with a grey brick plinth and a 20th-century tiled roof. This part is also two storeys high, with a moulded eaves cornice, a gable to the front at the left, and an end stack to the left. It has two bays, with the left bay slightly projecting; the glazing-bar sashes have cambered recessed lintels, and the ground floor window to the left is arched.

Inside, there have been some alterations to the front rooms. The original 1699 three-flight square well staircase features square newels, turned balusters, and a moulded handrail. The ground floor room to the rear on the right retains 1699 raised and fielded panelling, complete with a dado rail, cornice, and a panelled fireplace overmantel that has a pulvinated frieze and a keyed arched niche to the left. There is also 19th-century panelling in the front rooms and elsewhere, and the 1699 panelled window reveals are present throughout the building.
