Description
The Former Assembly Room and Market House, known as Conrad House, is a Georgian building attached to the Beaufort Hotel. It features rendered walls and a low double-pitched slate roof behind a moulded parapet cornice. The rectangular structure is four bays wide, with a staircase bay that steps back and is three bays deep. It stands two storeys tall.
On the first floor, there are Georgian-style windows with glazing bars and semicircular heads, typically set in arched recesses, with the centre right window featuring margin glazing. A continuous sill band is part of the entablature around the two sides. The ground floor has plate glass fitted into four full-length segmental-arched openings, with the centre right opening flanked by paired half-round columns. The side elevation has a slightly advanced central bay with similar first-floor windows, also with centre margin glazing, and segmental arched openings on the ground floor.
The building has been adapted for late 20th-century offices on both floors.
