Clarence Hotel

The Clarence Hotel, originally a private house, was built between 1828 and 1830, and extended in the late 19th century. It was designed by James Bedborough and is located on Clarence Road, Windsor. It is the end property of Clarence Crescent.

The building is constructed of London stock brick in Flemish bond, with the west side partly stuccoed. It has slate hipped roofs with low brick parapets, and brick axial stacks with yellow clay pots. The original house consists of a rectangular, three-bay design. In the late 19th century, it was extended by three bays to the north and two bays to the east, in a similar style.

The south front has three storeys and a 3:2 bay arrangement, with the right-hand two bays forming the late 19th-century extension. Features include a stucco plinth and bands at first and second floor levels, alongside four-pane sash windows with flat brick arches and stuccoed cills (the later extension's right-hand windows have slightly cambered arches). Doorways are situated to the left and right of centre. The west return, facing Clarence Crescent, has 3:3 bays, with the right-hand three bays being the original house. This section has stuccoed ground and first floors, featuring giant pilasters flanking a late 19th-century two-storey canted bay window. Smaller four-pane sashes are positioned above, while the left-hand extension mirrors this with a similar canted bay. The east side is entirely stuccoed and lacks windows.

The interior of the building was not inspected during the listing process.

The house was initially built for James Bedborough, a stonemason, builder, and former Mayor of Windsor, as his own residence. It forms the end house within Clarence Crescent, which he developed alongside No. 10 Clarence Road, encompassing a group of villas with associated pleasure gardens.
