Radnorshire Arms Hotel

The Radnorshire Arms Hotel is an original timber-framed building dated 1616, with later alterations and large rear additions possibly from around 1875. The hotel features a two-storey street front that is three bays wide, with an advanced centre gable above an open timber porch. It has a slate roof with three stone chimneys set diagonally over the chimney to the right of the entrance bay, and plain bargeboards. The exterior showcases close studding with whitewashed infill, a molded bressumer with a minimal jetty over the ground floor, and curved steps leading to the entrance porch, which has a 4-centred arch, timber seats, and an original studded door. There is a modern lean-to extension in a matching style on the ground floor to the right. The building retains some original detailing in its 3, 4, and 5-light mullioned and transomed windows, with casements mostly featuring diamond leaded lights.

At the rear, twin slated ranges with a garden roof pitch made of stone slabs extend to join the 19th-century additions. The garden elevation of the front building has close studding on the left and a 3-light first-floor bow, possibly from 1792, supported by timber piers on the right. The rear additions are three storeys plus attics, featuring a black and white treatment on the garden and street sides, with rubble and roughcast on the rear. These additions have slate roofs with ridge cresting, bargeboards, and grouped Tudor brick stacks. Most rear windows are sashes with glazing bars, while the garden front has mullioned windows with leaded lights.

Inside, the hotel retains two 17th-century panelled rooms with moulded beams, including roll moulding with elaborate stop chamfers in the ground floor room to the right. The entrance hall features a depressed Georgian arch, and the upstairs front lounge is late Georgian, with a coved ceiling facing the street and a bow window overlooking the garden. The 19th-century addition includes panelled rooms that match the originals, with the dining room incorporating older panelling.
