History
Hotel, originally only No 15, a 2-storey house of the earlier C19, marked on 1844 tithe map, but raised a storey in early C20. An old photograph shows overhanging eaves above first floor and door where centre ground floor window is now. The hotel was extended to the right in the later C20, taking in No 17 the former County Echo offices. A stream is marked on the site on the 1808 Kensington estate map.

End wall to Parc-y-shwt has 2 gables, much C19 brick, the end of the front range with 4-pane sash each floor to right. Three-storey, 3-window rear, roughcast with C20 lean-to.
