Built as a railway hotel circa 1876-78. A surprisingly richly detailed Italianate-Renaissance design for a conventional three bay two storey elevation of this kind. Sandstone "brick" with finely masoned ashlar dressings. Plinth, rusticated quoins, frieze and moulded eaves cornice. Gable end slate roof with saddlestones and flanking chimneys with moulded cornices. The first floor windows have moulded architrave surrounds and cambered heads with archivolt arches. The central window architrave is eared with a faceted keystone to the arch. The ground floor windows have coupled arched lights, flanking pilasters and dividing colonettes with foliate caps, archivolt arches with richly carved garland console keystone. Consoles to moulded sills on both floors. The central doorway has inner pilasters supporting archivolt arch with enriched keystone as on windows, and flanking pilasters with Composite capitals containing male and female heads. The entablature above has a dentil cornice. Extending to the right of the hotel proper is a two-storey coach house with bracketed eaves cornice to slate roof. Four archivolt arched first floor windows with linking impost string.
