Description
The Queens Hotel is a hotel built between 1840 and 1850. It features coursed rubble with ashlar dressings, quoins, and lintels, topped by a hipped slate roof. The building is two stories high and has three bays facing Station Road, with the central bay slightly projecting forward and accented with quoins. A Tuscan portico sits above a pair of half-glazed doors and a fanlight. The left bay has a bar frontage on the corner of Wellington Street, adorned with Tuscan pilasters, a fascia, and a moulded cornice. The windows are 2-pane sashes with etched glass, and there is a tiled corner and a plat band. On the first floor, there are 16-pane sashes with splayed lintels and keystones, along with block dentils and wide eaves. The return to Wellington Street also has three bays, similar in design but featuring Gibbsian pilasters at the central ground floor window and doors at the end bay. There is a left extension.
