Description

No. 70 East Street is a former coach-house and stable, converted into living accommodation for the adjacent hotel at No. 68. It was built in 1894 and features solid rendered walls designed to imitate masonry, with a slated roof and rendered chimneys on each gable end. The building is symmetrical, with a covered carriage entrance flanked by a room on either side. It has two storeys and is three windows wide.

In the centre, there is a four-centred arch with moulded spandrels and a square hoodmould with sponge-like terminals, along with patterned iron gates. The outer windows on each storey have mullioned-and-transomed wooden casements; the lower lights are two-paned, while the upper lights are six-paned. The ground storey windows have square hood-moulds, and the upper storey windows rise above the eaves, finished with gables that feature projecting braced and bracketed bargeboards. Above the central arch, there is a small two-light wooden casement window.

On the roof above this window is a blind triangular gable with moulded bargeboards, which displays the date 1894 and the monogram HPT in its centre. The entire front is flanked by raised quoins. The buildings surrounding the courtyard at the rear have been altered, with a stone rubble range to the left.
