The central carriageway entrance has an elliptical head of gauged brick and pair of framed and boarded doors with wicket gate. The early C18 south-east range was largely rebuilt late C19 after a fire, but retaining red brick walling to Palace Street. The north-west range, of 4 windows set forward between 3 windows on either side; a surmounting pediment with modillion cornice has the large coat of arms in painted plaster of the Duke of Rutland. The main entrance below has an entablature on pilasters; much altered or renewed C20; sash windows with flat arches and small- pane sashes. To right, a C19 range with elliptical arched carriage entrance, blocked with inserted window C20; a 2-storey splayed bay, and a similar oriel above the entrance. The north and south courtyard elevations both timber framed and rendered with C18 joinery: on the south side, a doorcase with canopy on brackets, on the north a fine sash window with semi-circular head. Known as the Ram Inn until C20 when renamed after the Duke of Rutland, at that time Lord of the Manor of Newmarket.
