Description
The Phoenix Hotel is a hotel, probably built in the late 18th century. It has a rendered and whitewashed exterior and features a hipped slate roof with a rendered stack on the left. The building is two storeys high and has a range of four windows, which are sashes with glazing bars. The facade has been significantly altered, with various windows blocked and a 20th-century shop front added in what was once a carriageway.
Inside, there is a bedroom that features an 18th-century stone fireplace surround with panelled decorations and an enriched cornice.
