Type

Building

Roofed and walled permanent structures.

Description

LLB161 - Two storey original element only. Former Inn, now derelict. Rendered (damaged) brick structure. A large, wrap-around single storey façade has been added to the original building to create a new entrance and join the separate structures. The original building is still visible in the southern section of the site. The front “hacienda” style façade masks the original building and it has been substantially extended. The main part of the building, noted by the double height porch, is the oldest and most significant part - modern extensions are excluded from local listing.
