Description

The Tenby and County Club is a club-house built from squared tooled grey limestone with Bath stone dressings and features a slate deep-eaved roof with brick end stacks. The building has two storeys and a basement, with a roughly four-window range. The roof is divided into two parts; the left two bays are hipped to the left, while the right two bays are slightly higher and steeply hipped to the left, featuring a bargeboarded gable in the left bay. The eaves cornice has ashlar brackets with red brick in between, interrupted by window heads. The flush ashlar quoins enhance the structure's appearance.

The two left bays contain four first floor plate glass sashes arranged in two pairs, framed with flush rusticated ashlar. A cement sill-band indicates the line of a removed balcony. The ground floor features a segmental-pointed plate glass sash on each side of a large Gothic porch made of ashlar, which has a segmental-pointed arch, brackets under a 20th-century flat roof (which replaced the balcony), and two red granite columns with Gothic floral capitals and sandstone plinths. There are ashlar pilaster responds with floral caps and basket-arches on the sides. Five broad steps lead up to large panelled double doors in a chamfered surround with an overlight.

The two right bays include a prominent gable feature on the left, which has bargeboards and an arch-braced collar in painted timber (renewed) over slightly projected first floor stonework with ashlar quoins that splay out above the ground floor bay-window. The first floor features a large three-light ashlar window with top lights and a hoodmould stepped over a central date-stone. The ground floor has a large ashlar canted bay window with a 1-3-1 light arrangement, also with top lights and stone corbels similar to those on the porch, leading to a 20th-century flat roof that was formerly a balcony. The right-hand bay has a similar two-light window with top lights on each floor. The basement area is surrounded by an unusual Gothic iron railing, with stone steps leading down to the left, a pair of sashes to the right, and a door beneath the porch steps. The rear of the building has rendered additions with two gables.

The interior is said to retain its original features, including a large stair hall and a wide staircase. Some original plasterwork can be found in the main front rooms, along with marble fireplaces.
