SD2878 PRINCE'S STREET 626-1/3/101 (West side) 02/03/50 Trinity House (Formerly Listed as: PRINCE'S STREET Vicarage)

GV II

House, now hotel and restaurant. Early to mid C19. Probably by Websters of Kendal. Limestone ashlar with side and rear walls of painted rubble. Slate roof. Double-depth plan. 2 storeys and 4 bays. Windows are glazing bar sashes with plain reveals, projecting sills on the ground floor, and a 1st-floor sill band. The door, in the 2nd bay, is of 6 raised and fielded panels and has an overlight of 3 panes. The limestone doorcase is of baseless Tuscan engaged columns with a triangular pediment. Gable chimneys. Attached to the wall of a rear extension is a lead plaque inscribed 'I G H 1812', which appears to have been removed from the cistern of a water pump. INTERIOR: the mahogany dogleg stair has stick balusters and a wreathed handrail. The left-hand front room contains a marble fireplace surround with moulded sunken panels and with anthemion brackets. The right-hand front room has a plainer marble fireplace, and a built-in cupboard (which appears to be mostly original) in the wall which divides it from the rear room. On the first floor there are fireplace surrounds of polished limestone, the left-hand front room having one with a cast-iron Gothick grate, and the right-hand one having a hob grate.
