NT 0043 7710 A Level 2 building survey was carried out on 28 November 2012 on the fire damaged Category B hotel prior to redevelopment of the site. Three broad phases of development were recorded. The principal building was constructed around 1759 as a private town house, before conversion to a hotel and associated additions to the W and S (rear) took place in 1842, coinciding with the arrival of the railway. Further work was undertaken from the mid-19th century onwards, with internal renovations and additional extensions added to the rear. Only the external walls of the building remain extant so evidence of internal features was limited.
