Description
The Sea Bank Hotel is a reduced Gothic building that stands four storeys high, with an attic and basement, except for the Balmoral, which has no basement. The southern end features two combined sections that form the Sea Bank Hotel. The Sea Bank Hotel has a four-window facade, while the Clarendon Hotel, Queensbridge Hotel, and Blaenwern each have a two-window facade, all constructed with bull-nosed rubble facing. The end houses, Abergeldie and Balmoral, have double fronted three-window snecked rubble elevations similar to those at the southern end of the terrace; Balmoral has been incorporated into the Alexandra Hall of Residence.
All buildings feature freestone banding, and most fronts are colourwashed. They have slate roofs, brick chimney stacks, and moulded eaves. Pitched roof dormers, some adorned with ornamental timberwork, are present, and the Queensbridge and Sea Bank Hotels have modern glazing, while the others retain sash windows set in stilted headed recesses. The third-floor windows are arranged in groups of twos and threes, and there are splayed three-storey bay windows flanking the entrance, supported by cylindrical columns with annulettes and some dentil cornices. The Queensbridge and Clarendon Hotels feature Gothic trefoil punched aprons. The Sea Bank Hotel has a modern ground floor loggia, while the other buildings have arched entrances with uncarved headstops and fanlights above modern doors.
