Pier Hotel

The Pier Hotel, formerly listed as New Quay Pier Hotel, is a hotel and restaurant built in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of brick covered in Roman cement and features a roof made of concrete pantiles. The building has a gabled roof on the southwest side and a hipped roof on the northeast side, returning to a gable at the southeast end. It stands three storeys tall with a square plan and includes a belvedere that has an unequal octagonal shape topped with a concrete pantile roof and an iron finial. The front corners are accentuated with consoles and part-consoles.

On the northwest front, there are two coupled double-hung sash windows with moulded semicircular heads and a decorative circle motif above. The northeast and southwest flanks each have one similar window. The main front features a modillioned cornice and consists of three wide bays with rusticated banded pilasters. The second floor has 20th-century aluminium windows with raised surrounds and a moulded band at floor level. The first floor showcases paired 20th-century aluminium French windows with linked upcurving 'Baroque' entablatures on each outer bay. The central bay is marked by a window with a segmental moulded arch and keystone, displaying the name 'Pier Hotel' in sans serif letters. A full-width balcony with an elegant cast-iron handrail enhances the façade.

The ground floor features a central arched entrance, while the right-hand bay remains unaltered, displaying a tripartite subdivision of pilasters with semicircular windows and three linked windows in the central section. The left bay has been simplified in the 20th century, featuring coupled arch-headed windows in the centre. At the time of the survey, there were projecting plastic canopies on either side of the entrance. The return flank to the northeast is finished in ashlar render and includes four double-hung sash windows on the first and second floors, corner banded strip pilasters, and double arch-headed windows on the ground floor with small painted timber pilasters.
