Full Description
Hotel, still in use, built in the late 19th century. It is a three storey and attic, three-bay building, constructed from coursed dressed granite. Bull-faced granite pilasters flank the centre recessed doorway, and a wide canted five-light bay window projects above the centre porch, with a parapet and semi-circular plaque enclosing a re-used crest. Between the first and second floors is a string course that links the bay window parapet. A slightly advanced second floor centre bay rises through the eaves to form a truncated pyramidal roof with cast-iron crown brattishing. There are also three jerkin-headed dormers with margin glazing, stilted heads to the outer first floor windows, mock angle turrets at wallhead, corniced end stacks and a slate roof with tiled cresting.
