Liberal Club

The Liberal Club is a villa, built around 1838, and subsequently altered. It was designed by William Thomas, who worked in Leamington and Canada. The building is constructed of pinkish-brown brick with a painted stucco facade and a Welsh slate roof. It is built in a Neo-Tudor style.

The villa is three storeys high, with three windows on the first floor, and a single-storey, single-bay section to the left and a two-storey, single-bay section to the right. The main range has pilaster buttresses to the corners, decorated with Gothic motifs and pyramidal caps. The central entrance is within a projecting porch, featuring double part-glazed doors with a four-centred overlight in a hollow-moulded surround. This surround includes a hoodmould with face-stops, quatrefoil decoration in the spandrels, a segmental pedimented upshot, and octagonal buttresses with onion caps to the angles.

The ground floor sections have pointed 'lancet' windows, three to the centre and two to each side, topped with a Gothic balustrade. The first floor has pairs of three-light windows with Gothic heads and margin-lights, divided overlights with some traces of quatrefoil glazing, and a hollow-moulded hood. A four-pane lancet window is located centrally on the first floor. The second floor has similar four- and two-pane lancets with margin-lights, all in chamfered surrounds with sills and hollow-moulded hoods. The gables are shaped with pointed finials, with a smaller pointed gable in the centre, all within hollow-chamfered surrounds. Tall end stacks have cornices.

The left range features a lancet window in a chamfered surround with a hoodmould and battlements, while the right range has a three-light lancet window with a hoodmould. The rear of the building includes a ground floor Gothic bay window and six-pane French windows.

Inside, the right-hand drawing room on the ground floor has an upper part of a triple ogee-arched arcade with fleurons and pinnacles with finials. The windows have moulded architraves. In the hall, there are two Gothic pilasters and an ogeed arch with fleurons leading to French windows. On the first floor, a pair of six-pane Gothic doors are present. The Liberal Club forms an architectural group with numbers 79, 81, 83, and 85 Holly Walk.
