Description

The Laurels is an early 19th-century building located on the north-east side of Oldland Bath Road in Longwell Green. It is two storeys high, featuring a rendered front with the remainder constructed from pennant stone rubble, and has quoins at the rear. The building has a pantile roof with coped verges and brick chimneys. There are three windows, which are plate glass sashes adorned with stepped voussoirs. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door that is sheltered by a tented canopy supported by tented brackets. The rear of the building has a coped parapet similar to the front, along with glazing bar sashes.
