Description
The Black Lion Hotel is a three-storey building constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring a stucco cornice and parapet, topped with a slate roof and brick end stacks. The façade has a five-window range of sash windows with cambered brick heads; the second floor has 6-pane windows, the first floor has 12-pane windows, and the ground floor has been altered with shallow 12-pane 20th-century bow windows. The central door is topped with a traceried overlight and is set within a 20th-century rebuilt timber classical porch supported by two untapered Roman Doric columns without bases. The porch includes pilaster responds and an entablature with triglyphs above the columns, finished with a flat cornice. There are two lead downpipes featuring embossed lions on the rainwater heads.
The rear of the building is constructed of stone and includes two rear wings; the southern wing is taller and has a truncated brick stack, while the northern wing features two brick corner stacks and an arch-headed gable window. The interior has been altered on the ground floor but retains one brick-arched fireplace at the south end.
