Grade II listed hotel and assembly room, dating from the 17th century, refronted and raised in about 1800 and altered in the late 19th and 20th centuries. They are colourwashed and rendered brick with stucco dressings and has a slate roof with two gable and single ridge stacks. For the full description of this listed building please refer to the National Heritage List for England. {1}{2} A programme of works including archaeological monitoring and recording, and historic building survey of the hotel and associated buildings took place in late 2020 and early 2021, prior to the proposed partial demolition of some elements and conversion of the rest to residential units. The four evaluation trenches revealed a single pit of presumed post-medieval date, possibly associated with the construction of one of the hotel buildings. The historic building survey investigated five buildings. The main hotel is a three storey East-West oriented rendered and whitewashed building, under a pitched gabled roof of Welsh slate. Two string courses circle the building below the first and second storey windows. The main entrance consists of a plain moulded timber architrave with double doors. To the west of this entrance is a wide segmental arch opening, built to provide carts access to the rear yard and stables. The interior comprises a pub and office/bedroom on the ground floor, with five bedrooms on the first floor and six bedrooms on the second floor. To the East of the hotel is the two storey Assembly Room building, consisting of a possible former tap room on the ground floor and the assembly room itself on the first floor. A blocked arch can be seen in the brickwork of the east elevation, and is reflected by a moulded architrave inside the assembly room. There is a small blocked fireplace in the north wall. The ceiling, partially hidden by a modern suspended ceiling, is of plaster with floral motifs and is possibly late Georgian in date. To the rear of the Assembly Room building and appended to it with a straight joint is a two storey former stables and probably brewhouse. North-south aligned, it is built of red-grey brick in English Garden Wall Bond, under a double pitched gabled ceramic tile roof. All of the window and door openings in the east elevation of this building are infilled with brick. Many of the original fixtures and fittings survived in the stables, and the brewhouse contained a mezzanine upper level and a free-standing brick-built vaulted store. Many of the roof timbers in this part of the building appear to be hand-hewn and are likely reclaimed. To the rear of the hotel building is the partially demolished North wing, built in brick and originally three storeys in height. To the North of the main group of buildings is a small rectangle of brick wall - all that remains of a demolished former tap bar. {3}{4}
