Description
The Limes Hotel is an 18th-century building located at 59 Preston Street. It is two storeys high with an attic and features five windows and two dormers. The exterior is roughcast with overhanging eaves that replace a parapet, and there are recessed rectangular panels above the first-floor windows. The glazing bars are intact, and the roof is tiled.
The hotel has an impressive doorway adorned with fluted Doric pilasters, a triglyph frieze, and a pediment. To the north of the hotel, there is a shop window flanked by similar pilasters and a cornice above, although a modern window has been inserted there. A doorway leads to the bar, positioned at a splayed angle with the corner projecting over it. The north front features a curved bay on the ground floor that contains a three-light window.
The Limes Hotel is part of a group that includes No 53 and Nos 55 to 59.
