Description

Abbotsfield Priory Hotel is a Gothic-style building constructed from coursed and squared tooled sandstone, topped with a slate roof featuring scalloped bands and ridge cresting. It is two storeys high and has an L-shaped plan, with the entrance located towards the centre at the angle of the wing. The entrance porch is asymmetrically gabled and features polished granite shafts supporting a deep moulded arch, with the text 'Trust in God' engraved on a scroll above.

To the left of the doorway, there is an advanced wing that includes a canted bay window with a lean-to stone roof and trefoiled mullioned lights on the lower floor. Above this, there is a two-light Decorated window, topped with a blind trefoil in the apex of the gable, which is adorned with a wrought iron finial. To the right of the entrance, a single lancet window is positioned between buttresses on the ground floor, with paired steep dormer gables above; one features a two-light decorated window, while the other has a cusped trefoiled light. The gable copings are complemented by moulded kneelers.

The principal windows for these rooms are located in the gable return, showcasing a three-light foiled mullioned window below a relieving arch on the ground floor, and an oriel window above. Beyond this gable, a canted full-height bay projects, which has trefoiled mullioned lower windows and a Decorated window above, set beneath a steep dormer gable. The building also features side wall stacks on the gabled wing and an axial stack at the rear of the main range.

The hotel has largely preserved its original layout, along with several original details, including the encaustic tiled entrance hall and the staircase, which is decorated with quatrefoil and rosette panels between heavy newels.
