Hotel, still in use, built in 1890 on the site of the former Eagle Inn and the Fishmarket. It is first shown on the 2nd edition OS map as an L-plan range. Current maps show some alterations to the rear of the buildings. It is a three-storey and attic hotel building, terminating in an irregular terrace. It is constructed from sandstone ashlar to the front and brick to the rear, with chamfered margins. There is a string-course above the ground floor, first and second floor cill courses and an eaves cornice. The wallhead gables and dormers are curvilinear. There are grey slate pitched roofs with stone skews and skewputts, that to the north-west are corbelled and gabletted. The north-east principal elevation is asymmetrical with five bays. The centre bay has a stone-mullioned bipartite at the ground, corbelled and canted oriels at the first and second floors and a Dutch gabled wallhead dormer above. The bay to the south-east has a painted, pilastered doorpiece with a round-arched doorway forming a broken pediment with an acanthus leaf finial. The inner bay to the north-west has a shallow segmental-arched window to the first floor and a hoodmoulded, ogee gabled window at the second floor with a ball finial. The south-east elevation has round-arched windows, with the attic window being set in a Dutch gable. There is a single-bay splayed corner at the north-west end. There is a single-storey range off the south-east end.
