HOTEL (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
It may be assumed that the former hotel at 2132 Heathcote-Redesdale Road is built of local bluestone quarried from nearby quarries. Redesdale had a plentiful supply of bluestone from several quarries in the 1870s and most substantial buildings in the township are constructed of this material. 2132 is built to the road frontage as it winds through Redesdale in a picturesque manner. It is one of a number of commercial buildings in the township. It is built with a cut off corner that is commonly associated with hotels, and this is reflected in the roof form where the hip is segmented. It is believed that the roof form is original, however, that original materials would have been different from the current galvanised iron. [1] Doors are four panelled and have a fanlight above whilst the windows are of two different designs including four pane sash windows and fixed windows with arch headed sashes. One of these has been altered in the lower part of the sash.
There are the remains of stone paving set in the footpath at the front door. The rear of the building has been altered by the addition of a skillion weatherboard extension. The site contains a large bluestone base structure, believed to have been built in the 1950s, on which water tanks are mounted [2]. This appears to have been constructed from bluestone salvaged from a former building, however it is not of interest. There is also other tank stands on the property, and these are not of any interest. There is a corrugated iron woodshed which is not of interest.
