Description
The Golden Lion is an inn located in a terraced row, built with painted stucco and featuring a slate gabled roof. The eaves and ridge of the roof are noticeably higher than those of the adjacent No 101 but align with No 103. The building has brick end stacks, with a small stack on the left and a truncated stack on the right. It stands three storeys tall with a cellar and has a three-window range, consisting of two bays on the left and one bay to the centre right.
The exterior includes channelled angle quoins, moulded eaves, two sill bands, and a raised plinth. There is also a moulded course on the first floor that steps as hoodmoulds over the windows. The windows are plate glass sash types, with the upper ones featuring eared surrounds with channelled sides, voussoirs, and keystones. The first floor windows have linked hoodmoulds and keystones, while the ground floor windows are adorned with rusticated surrounds, voussoirs, and vermiculated keystones.
The entrance features a six-panel door, with the top two panels fielded, set within a surround that includes pilasters, a frieze, and a large cornice. A late 19th-century wrought iron canopy is supported by scrolled iron brackets, and the fascia displays the name 'Golden Lion Hotel' in metal letters. Additionally, there are two cellar grilles set into the raised plinth. The ground floor has been altered.
