Description

This early 19th-century building, originally a YMCA Hostel, stands on the north side of Cranbury Place. It is two storeys high and constructed of stock brick, with a central three-bay section raised to emphasize its importance. The roof is hipped and covered in slate. The facade features nine sash windows with glazing bars. The central section has two canted bays on the ground floor, and a Tuscan portico. A doorcase on the left side boasts a round-headed fanlight, pilasters, and a six-panelled door.
