Description

The Grapes Hotel is a hotel, restaurant, and public house built in the Georgian style during the early phases of improvement by the estate. It features coursed stone masonry, including a massive stone lintel across the ground floor openings. The building has a slate roof with overhanging eaves and a large stone ridge stack. It is designed in a T-shaped plan with dripstones and capping.

The main elevation faces the street to the east and consists of a two-storey, six-window range. The doorway is offset to the left (south) and is sheltered by a flat-roofed porch supported by timber piers. The windows are 12-pane hornless sashes with slate sills. At the far left (south) end of this range is a round-headed arch that serves as a carriage entrance leading to the rear of the terrace.

The north gable return is a two-storey structure with an attic, featuring a three-window range and a door at the far left (east) under a deep overlight with interlaced glazing bars. The attic windows are unequal sashes with nine panes. At the rear, the ground falls away, and this range extends to three storeys with attics. The first floor has a glazed balcony, and the attic windows are shallow six-pane hornless sashes set beneath the eaves.

There is a storeyed block at the northwest corner of the range, which has another storeyed block at its northwest corner. A slate-roofed verandah is built in the angle between the two blocks to the southwest. Both blocks have modern windows along the rear (west) elevation, with the latter being a roughly mirrored pair of cottages that have doorways at the centre of the range and modern timber casement windows.

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