Description
The Queens Coffee Tavern, also known as the Percy Davies Institution, is a tall Victorian building dating from the 19th century. It features a three-storey, one-window painted brick front with some Gothic details and an open-pedimented gable end facing the street, which is flanked by advanced and panelled end pilaster strips. The building has a slate roof.
On the second floor, there are paired semicircular headed sash windows with keystones and a bracketed cill. The first floor showcases a splayed oriel window with sash glazing, and above the ground floor cornice, there is a dated corbel with gablets at either end. The entrance consists of a recessed half-glazed door, and there is a memorial tablet located below it.
The Standard Street frontage is roughcast with six windows and features a cross gable over the central bay, which contains a six-panel door. The sash windows throughout have glazing bars and cambered heads.
Inside, the ground floor retains Gothic furnishings.
