Description
The Spread Eagle Public House is a public house that incorporates two former terraced houses on Parkway and three on Albert Street. The original houses date from the early to mid-19th century, with alterations made to the public house frontage in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of painted brick and stucco.
The exterior features three storeys and a cellar, with an irregular arrangement of three windows facing Parkway. There is a bowed corner treatment with two windows and a return of seven windows to Albert Street. The right side of the Parkway facade has a tiled ground floor with a round-arched entrance and window, while the upper floors have recessed, square-headed sash windows and a parapet. The corner section includes large wooden-framed windows, with lower portions having segmental heads and upper portions featuring mullions and small panes. The first floor has casement windows with a continuous cast-iron balcony above the fascia, and the second floor has recessed sashes. This architectural treatment continues along Albert Street, where the left side features a tiled public house frontage with round-arched entrances and windows that have keystones. The upper floors have architraved, recessed four-pane sashes, with the first floor displaying alternating console-bracketed cornices and pediments, topped with a cornice and blocking course.
Inside, the public house retains a well-preserved early 20th-century bar counter, along with panelling, cornices, and fittings arranged in three distinct spaces.
