Clarence House Hotel and area railings

Hotel, formerly three houses, each stucco with imitation slate roofs, basement and four storeys and attic, two-window range, one side with a full-height stucco canted bay, the other with single windows over door. The first two houses are a mirrored pair with canted bays to the outside, the third is slightly stepped up and has the bay to the right, being a mirrored pair with the next house, now part of Atlantic Hotel. Windows are mostly 4-pane sashes, but 2-pane narrower sashes to sides of canted bays. C20 dormers. Parapet with inset mouldings with rebated angles in sunk panels. Cambered headed windows in moulded surrounds to upper two floors (surrounds to middle canted bay are square headed rather than cambered), arched French windows opening onto a continuous iron balcony on the first floor, with moulded arched heads, plain fanlights and pilaster sides (outer right canted bay has moulded square head over front arched window). Ground floor has channelled rustication and plain square heads to windows and door. First floor balcony is on iron brackets and has attractive slightly Gothic iron railings, akin to earlier C19 designs. Four-panel doors with overlights originally, but altered. Basement sash windows. Fleur-de-lys heads to iron area railings. Side elevation to Sutton Street has stuccoed chimney, and 3-window range of plate glass sashes, 4 storeys, paired sashes in centre. Added or rebuilt 3 storey, 4-window rear wing.
