Description

The Original Roslin Hotel, located on Main Street in Roslin, was built in 1857 with a later addition to the east, dated 1892. This two-storey, six-bay hotel features a single-storey, four-bay separate addition to the east. The building is constructed from stugged ashlar sandstone, while the addition uses stugged and snecked ashlar sandstone. It has a base course and raised, painted, and droved margins around the windows, with strip quoins on the three-bay block to the right and quoins at the angles of the block to the left.

The southwest elevation, which is the principal front, has ten bays, with the four-bay addition set back to the outer right. The bays are grouped in a 3-3-4 arrangement. The central three-bay block features a later plastic pilastered and corniced doorpiece in the middle bay, with a chamfered, architraved doorway behind it and a timber panelled door. There is a window above this door on the first floor. Each of the outer bays has a window on both floors. The three-bay block to the outer left has a window in the centre bay on the first floor, with windows in the outer bays on both floors. The single-storey, four-bay block, which is recessed to the outer right, has a square-plan, piend roofed porch in the centre with multi-pane glazed double doors on the right return. There is a rectangular panel with the date and initials to the right of centre, a two-light mullioned window in the bay to the right, a small window in the bay to the left, and a boarded door in the outer left bay.

The southeast return elevation is symmetrical with three bays. It features an architraved doorway in the centre bay with a timber panelled door, a blank circular reserve above in the gablehead, and an ashlar coped gablehead stack. There is a window on each floor in the bays to the left and right.

The windows throughout are 12-pane timber sash and case, with a small-pane porch and an 8-pane fixed horizontal window in the addition. The roof is covered in grey slate, with a piended slate roof on the addition, and features ashlar coped stacks, ashlar skews, and cast-iron rainwater goods.
