Description

The Glenbank Hotel, located on Castlegate in Jedburgh, is an earlier 19th-century L-plan villa built from cream squared and snecked sandstone, featuring ashlar dressings and later additions.

The east elevation has a regular arrangement of windows with broadly spaced bays. At the center, there is a panelled door with a rectangular fanlight, which is deep-set in a pilastered ashlar doorcase. To the right, there is a modern flat-roofed, cement-rendered two-storey addition that is blank and covered in ivy.

On the north elevation, there is a full-height canted bay to the right, with a wallhead stack beyond it. To the left, almost abutting the canted window, is a projecting three-bay modern addition, which includes a window at the ground level on the return wall. A modern uPVC conservatory is attached to the front face of the bay, providing access and extending beyond the west end of the elevation.

The west elevation features two slightly raised bays with projecting jambs on the left, and two bays from the rear of the front block on the right, which have windows only at the first floor and a large box dormer. The ground floor is obscured by a single-storey two-bay polygonal link that steps back.

On the south elevation, the right side shows a two-bay section of the front block that is blank except for a window at the bottom left. To the left, there is a door leading to a setback link at ground level, with a window above it on the return wall of the jamb.

The windows throughout the building are timber sash and case, with 12 panes on the front, plate glass on the canted bay, and generally 4 panes on the rear. The roof is piended and covered with grey slates, while the main block has coped ashlar stacks and the rear has coped brick stacks.

The interior has been heavily altered due to its conversion into a hotel.

The property also features gatepiers and a boundary wall made of rubble along Castlegate, which includes a George V wall-mounted post box. The gatepiers, located to the far left, are square and made of painted ashlar with flat pyramidal caps.
