Standing Building Recording (30 November 2016)
NO 11299 23528 (NO12SW 1230) A historic building survey was undertaken, 30 November 2016, of the Category C listed hotel prior to its demolition. The hotel consisted of three linked buildings, two S-facing three-storey converted villas and a four-storey, purpose-built hotel, all dating from the later 19th century. Although both Victorian and art deco elements were noted during the survey, later reuse of the hotel as temporary accommodation had resulted in most decoration being stripped out. Following the closure of the site in 2009, a fire had caused severe damage to the roof in the W villa and extensive water damage in other areas of the complex, rendering some parts of the building unsafe.
