Description

A hotel in late-Georgian style of 10 bays and 3 storeys and attic, of scribed roughcast painted cream, slate roof on deep bracketed eaves, and brick stacks to the front roof slope. Openings are not quite symmetrical. They are grouped 4+6 bays, with the original part of the hotel on the R side and the extension of 1900 on the L. The R-hand has rusticated quoins. The L-hand has rock-faced quoins. Windows are horned sashes with 12-panes in the upper sash and 2 panes in the lower sash. Lower and upper-storey windows have moulded cornices. The middle storey has bracketed cornices with alternate segmental and triangular pediments. The 2 central bays have similar pediments to the upper-storey windows, beneath a gable bearing a coat of arms and a pediment on consoles which is inscribed 'JC 1900AD'. The main entrance is in the 9th bay, and has a C20 glazed porch under a hipped slate roof. The 4th bay also incorporates a panelled door and overlight, under a cornice linked with the window immediately to its L. There are 8 roof dormers with segmental pediments and 16-pane horned sash windows.

The R gable end is asymmetrical. On the L side it has sash windows in the middle and upper storeys, of small-panes upper sashes over 2-pane lower sashes. On the R side of the apex are 2 windows in each storey, all sashes similar to the front except for a 2-light inserted window in the lower storey. A 1-bay rear extension has similar windows.

The L gable end is of rock-faced stone. It has an added brick stack, small-pane sashes and inserted windows. In the rear elevation the 4 added bays are of snecked rock-faced stone with lighter quoins. Sash windows and dormers are similar to the front. Alternate bays have 2-storey canted bay windows. The centre has a gabled brick stair projection, to which a conservatory has been added. Set back further L the wall is also of rock-faced stone and the return wall of the rear extension, of rubble stone, with windows similar to the front.

The entrance lobby has a polished-slate fireplace surround. On the L side is a dining room with panelled cross beams on consoles. An axial corridor behind it leads to the early C20 open-well stair, which has moulded square newels and turned balusters. General features include panelled reveals incorporating lozenge panels. Another dining room, in the extension of 1900, also has panelled cross beams on consoles and panelled reveals.
