The Esplanade Hotel and railings

The Esplanade Hotel is a terraced house that has been converted into a hotel. It features painted stucco and a slate roof, with stuccoed end stacks. The building stands three storeys high, with an attic and basement, and has a two-window range. To the left, there is a full-height canted bay, while the right side has a single window on each floor. The parapet is interrupted by two flat-headed dormers, and there are applied stucco panels on either side of each window. These panels have moulded surrounds with rebated corners. Most windows are 4-pane sashes, with narrower 2-pane sashes on the canted sides of the bay. The attic windows have cambered heads, and the second-floor windows feature moulded surrounds with keystones. The upper corners of the reveals are rounded, and the first-floor windows have cambered heads with stucco pilasters and moulded heads. The ground floor windows have distinctive three-sided heads within surrounds that include pilasters and moulded stilted square heads, while the basement windows also have cambered heads. A moulded cornice runs between the second and third floors, with a slight step under the parapet. The entrance is located on the right side facing St Florence Parade, where the gable wall steps forward, creating a one-window range on each side, and features a porch in the angle. The area is enclosed by iron railings with fleur-de-lys finials. The ground floor has been largely altered.
