LYNDHURST CLUB HOTEL - Physical Description 1
The Lyndhurst Club Hotel is a three storey rendered brick Italianate building in the style of a 'grand' hotel. At first floor level on the Lygon Street facade there is a arcaded recessed balcony with a rendered balustrade. A triangular pediment surmounts the parapet at above the chamfered corner of the building. Openings at all levels are arched, with string courses at impost level. The facade is divided vertically by moulded pilasters, which have banded rustication at ground floor level, and horizontally at each level by string courses. The parapet, which is partially balustraded and partially panelled, sits above a deep cornice, and is decorated with urns. The chimneys are rendered with moulded tops. Windows are timber-framed double-hung sashes. The original panelled timber external doors remain. Plain rectangular windows replace the grander arched ones at the west of the Albion Street facade.
Although substantially intact above street level, the Lyndhurst Hotel has had openings altered and signs added at street level. A portico with turned timber posts and a hipped corrugated galvanised steel roof has been added at the entrance to a gaming area off Albion Street. A skillion-roofed verandah with a barrel-vaulted entrance off Lygon Street has also been added.
