The Abington Hotel

The Abington Hotel is a building constructed in 1898 in the French Renaissance style by Matthew Holding. It features red brick with finely carved stone dressings and a stone slated roof adorned with ornate gabled dormers and tall chimneystacks with pilasters. The hotel has two storeys and attics, with ground and first floor entablatures. Composite pilasters flank the windows, which are primarily stone mullioned and transomed casements, with some ground floor sashes. There is a round arched porch, and the corner gable is flanked by two turrets topped with square-based cupolas. The ground floor stonework is marred by black and red paint.
