Glenfriars House Hotel, Friarsgate, Jedburgh

Glenfriars House Hotel, located on Friarsgate in Jedburgh, is an early 19th-century building with later additions. This three-storey, four-bay villa, now functioning as a hotel, features an additional two-storey entrance bay. The exterior is constructed from cream sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings.

On the east elevation, the central three-storey, three-bay section has single windows on all floors of the left bay. The centre and right bays are highlighted by a large two-storey canted window, which has ashlar with chamfered reveals, a cornice, and a blocking course, along with bipartite windows in the centre and single windows on the second floor. To the outer left, there is a recessed two-storey flat-roofed porch made of stugged ashlar with polished dressings. This porch features a pilastered and corniced doorcase with a two-leaf panelled door and a two-pane fanlight, flanked by narrow six-vertical-pane windows. Above, a tall single window is flanked by identical narrow windows, all topped with a cornice. To the outer right, a recessed bay has windows on each floor, with a brick and rubble single-storey piend-roofed addition beyond.

The south elevation shows the projecting two-storey rubble side wall of the entrance porch, with a window to the left at ground level. Above and to the right is a blank harled wall of the central block, featuring a wallhead stack.

The west (rear) elevation consists of a three-storey, four-bay harled block with windows on all floors of each bay. The inner right bay includes a full-height projecting piend-roofed stair tower, which is a later addition, with a closet tower in the re-entrant angle to the left. To the right is a blank two-storey bay of the porch, and to the left is a single-storey and attic piend-roofed rubble addition with an attached brick shed beyond.

The north elevation has a blank rubble wall with a wallhead stack. At ground level, there is a brick and rubble single-storey addition with a segmental-headed box dormer, which is now derelict.

The building features 12-pane timber sash and case windows, with 8-pane windows on the canted window and lying panes on the porch and stair tower. The roof is piended and covered with grey slates, and there are harled stacks. Inside, the entrance hall has a tiled floor and glazed doors leading to an elegant stair.

Additionally, there are gatepiers and a boundary wall surrounding the property. The boundary wall is made of rubble with semicircular coping along Friarsgate, and there is a culvert to the left of the entrance. Square droved ashlar gatepiers with pyramidal caps are located in the lane to the north of the property.
