Public house. 1898. By WEV Crompton; slightly altered. Red
brick in Flemish bond with matching terracotta dressings,
slate roof concealed by parapet. Double-depth double-fronted
plan with projecting central porch and long back extension
following curved plot. Artisan Mannerist style.
EXTERIOR: 3 storeys and 3 bays, symmetrical, the centre
projected; with a cornice to ground floor carried round, plain
terracotta sill-and head-bands to the upper floors, prominent
modillioned cornice with egg-and-dart enrichment and
balustraded parapet. The full-height projected centre has an
open porch at ground floor with 2 pairs of polished granite
Tuscan columns carrying a prominent segmental canopy, and a
doorway with moulded surround and panelled double doors; a
mullion-and-transom window at 1st floor with arched centre
light (Venetian style), a wide foliated terracotta panel over
this with raised lettering "CLARENCE / HOTEL" painted gold,

window at 2nd floor. The flanking bays have 2-light windows at
ground floor with pilaster mullions and moulded architraves,
cross-windows at 1st floor, and 2-light windows at 2nd floor.
