Description
Large accommodation block in severe Neo-Georgian style; of rendered brick construction with green Welsh slate roofs; plain rendered chimneys. Three storeys with long, symmetrical main elevation facing the road (E). This has a 17-window main block with projecting, single-window hipped wings to the ends beyond which are (set back) two-window blocks with hipped roofs (single-storey section at front to R). Pediment with oculus over the central 3 bays which are set slightly forward: the central bay has a two-storey canted porch with pedimented doorcase. Single storey canted bay windows to the ground floors of the projecting end wings.
The rear elevation is similarly symmetrical. This has a central recessed 5 window section with parapet and urn finials to the ends; the shaped parapet wall follows the roof slope of the returns of the adjacent bays and have similar urn finials to the ends. The attic storey has ocular windows; five small-pane sash windows to the second and first floors. Extruded single-storey cycle shed blocks with curvilinear parapet walls. Central entrance within a shallow single-storey porch projection. To each side of this recessed central section are 5 window sections set forward, with small-pane sash glazing: inner windows 9-pane, outer 12-pane; shallow projecting bays to (interior) stairs have reliefs with baskets of fruit. Beyond these are 5-window blocks set forward again; 3 windows to ground floor with central splayed bay. Flanking 5-bay hipped sections also advanced, with 12-pane sashes as before and central canted bays to the ground floor.
