Description

The Prince Albert Public House is a public house built around 1845. It features a stucco exterior with a roof obscured by a parapet. The building has three storeys and a three-window range, and it is double-fronted.

The entrance is flat-arched and flanked by pilasters and an entablature. The ground and first floors were originally flanked by giant pilasters; the outer pair has palmette ornamentation on the capitals, while the inner pair is Ionic. On the left side, these pilasters remain intact, and the ground-floor window retains its original flat-arched form with pilasters and an entablature. However, alterations were made on the right side, likely in the late 19th century, resulting in a broad, flat-arched window with quadrant corners, framed by rusticated pilasters and a cornice that replaces part of the original pilasters.

The first-floor windows are round-arched, featuring pilasters, an archivolt, and a console as a keystone. There is a broad entablature with a dentil cornice and an attic storey with a secondary cornice. The first- and second-floor windows have sashes of original design, and the parapet steps up at the centre and has its own cornice. There are side stacks, and the late 19th-century treatment of the ground floor is echoed in Frederick Place, where there are two flat-arched entrances.

Inside, the ground floor has dados made of tongue-and-groove boarding, and there is a dogleg staircase with a turned newel, stick balusters, and an open string.
