Description
Kings Court Motel is a former farmhouse that dates back to the 17th century, with a late 18th-century range facing the road and some late 20th-century additions and alterations. The building features a timber frame with lath and plaster infill, and is underbuilt with lias rubble. It has a concrete tile roof, while the front range is constructed of red brick with a moulded stucco cornice and a slate roof, including brick stacks throughout.
The complex plan includes a front range that is two storeys high and has a three-window range. The slightly projecting centre is topped with a pediment and features a six-panelled door with a fanlight and a panelled intrados. The wood doorcase is adorned with baseless unfluted Doric half-columns, dosserets with triglyphs, and a broken pediment. The windows are 16-pane sashes with gauged brick flat arches, with a narrower window in the centre. The timber-framed range at the rear is only visible on the right return side and includes a jowled post on the right, along with 20th-century casements.
Inside, some of the timber framing is exposed, and there is a broad stepped stop-chamfered ceiling beam and another ceiling beam with roll mouldings. A late 18th-century or early 19th-century straight flight staircase is also present.
