Churchill Hotel, 4 Llandaff Place

Nos. 1-4 Llandaff Place

Wholly rendered and painted with horizontal rustication and quoins to the ground floor and smooth with some decoration above, Welsh slate roofs. Two Italianate semi-detached pairs; one pair still domestic and the other now the Churchill Hotel. Large grand houses of three storeys and semi-basement and with considerable rear wings some parts of which are C20 extensions. Each house has two bays with a narrow bay on the outside for the entrances and a much wider central bay for the principal rooms. Steps and pierced balustraded wall to the front; porches with square columns and semi-circular keyed heads, sidelights to porch, panelled door with fanlight. In the centre a 3-window canted bay, above this a window of three tall lights with arched heads, this within a slight projection with dentil conrnice above; above this again a single window with bracketted head. All these windows are large plate glass sashes. The outer bay has a French window with bracketted head onto a balcony over the porch, but the ironwork does not survive to all houses, above this is a another plain sash. Projecting eaves on large brackets, gabled to the main bays. Rendered multi-flued stacks. Two gabled returns with one and two windows as before; lower three storey rear wings with similar small windows. Rear elevations are plainer but with still with sash windows.

This house is now joined with No 3 as a hotel with consequent rear extensions, but it does retain its first floor ironwork.

Interior not inspected at resurvey. The houses have been converted to hotel use with all the consequent alterations to the rooms and planning.
