Highfield Hotel

Highfield Hotel is a house that has been converted into a hotel, dating from the early to mid 19th century. It is constructed of stucco and features hipped slate roofs. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with the central bay canted and topped with a gablet. The sides have recessed one-storey bays, and there are two-storey gabled wings at the rear that flank a yard. The gables are adorned with decorative barge boards, and the central gablet includes a cartouche.

The three-bay center of the building has an iron verandah supported by round columns, featuring scrollwork above cambered heads and an enriched balustrade. The windows are fitted with label moulds; the ground floor has French windows with glazing bars and margin lights, while the first floor has single-bar sash windows flanking a 20th-century French window. The gabled wings have narrow lights with small-paned fixed glazing and margin lights, and the left wing has square lights on the ground floor.

The central entrance is round-headed and features panelled pilasters, a fanlight, and glazed doors with margin lights. The inner doors have painted glass panels with red flashed and etched margins. The wings also have round-headed entrances, but these have blocked fanlights. The building has gable-end stacks, including one on the gablet and lateral stacks on the center and flanking bays, all with octagonal shafts. At the rear, there are small-paned casement windows and a central round-headed stair window with small-paned fixed glazing and etched glass. Lean-to verandahs are present at the re-entrant angles, some of which also have small-paned glazing.
