Description
Ashley Court is a former hotel that has been converted into flats. It is a four-storey building with a long, four-bay front made of stucco, topped with a parapet. The façade features four canted oriel windows that rise through the upper floors, with the right pair being closer together and set slightly higher than the left pair. Between the left oriels at the third floor level, there is a square nine-pane sash window. The oriels are designed with 2-6-2-pane glazing and have moulded cornices on each floor.
The ground floor is channelled, with the left half featuring a cornice beneath the oriels, above two shop windows and a narrow central door. The shop windows have bronze surrounds and stucco pilasters on either side. The right half contains a single larger shop window with a similar bronze surround but no pilasters. In 1977, the ground floor had three sash windows, with the left one being a triple sash, and a broad recessed porch with pilasters and a cornice in the second bay.
At the rear, there is a large southwest wing that extends back to Upper Frog Street, also four storeys high, featuring a high end gable and a 20th-century shop on the ground floor. There is a narrow yard to the north that includes a single 19th-century tooled stone gatepier with rendered pyramid coping and a ball finial. The 1977 listing mentioned two piers. The ground floor has been altered for use as shops.
