Description

Hotel, restaurant and public house, built in the Georgian style characteristic of the early phases of improvement by the estate; coursed stone masonry including massive stone lintel across the ground floor openings. Slate roof with overhanging eaves; large stone ridge stack, built to a T-shaped plan, with dripstones and capping. The principal elevation faces the street to the E, a 2-storey 6-window range with the doorway offset to L (S) under a flat roofed porch on timber piers; windows are 12-pane hornless sashes with slate sills. At the far L (S) end of the range is a round-headed arch, a carriage entrance that leads through to the rear of the terrace. The N gable return is a 2-storey with attic, 3-window range with a door at far L (E) under a deep overlight with interlaced glazing bars; attic windows are unequal sashes of 9-panes. At the rear of the range, the ground falls away and the range is 3-storey with attics, the first floor now has a glazed balcony and the attic windows are shallow 6-pane hornless sashes set under the eaves. There is a storeyed block built at the NW corner of the range that in turn has a storeyed block built at its NW corner; there is a slate roofed verandah built in the angle between the 2 blocks to SW. Both blocks have modern windows along the rear (W) elevation, the latter being a roughly mirrored pair of cottages with doorways to the centre of the range and windows being modern timber casements.

The interior has been somewhat modernised but retains elements of the early layout.
