Description
The Crown Hotel is a late 18th-century house that has been converted into a hotel. It features grey headers with red brick dressings and has a shallow paired bracketed cornice above a slate roof with end stacks. The building stands three storeys tall and has a regular five-window front. The windows are primarily glazing bar sashes with gauged heads, except for 20th-century casements on the second floor. There is a central doubled casement in a segment-headed surround on the second floor, and a central Venetian window on the first floor. The ground floor has a window to the extreme left in a raised surround, which includes a shallow casement and a night-safe in the blocked part below. The central entrance is framed by a paired pilaster surround with tall thin windows between the outer pilasters. The entrance features a central glazed door with a radiating fanlight in an arched surround, supported by rusticated pilasters and topped with a moulded arch that has a keystone.
