Description

The Gordon Rooms, located at Nos 1-3 Laundry Green, is an L-shaped building from the late 18th century, likely designed by James Wyatt. It stands two storeys tall, featuring nine windows on the east side and seven on the south. The exterior is faced with flints and includes a castellated parapet and a hipped tiled roof. The ground floor has pointed windows, while the upper floor features quatrefoil-shaped windows, with the glazing bars remaining intact. At the southern end of the south wing, there is a section under the same roof span that contains one large non-Gothic sash window with a pointed tympanum above and flanking window spaces. The east wing consists of three cottages, and the south wing houses staff recreation rooms.
