CARRINGTON HOTEL - Physical Description 1
The Carrington Hotel is a two storey brick building. Walls are rendered, with simple moulded string courses and patterned tile dado. A parapet with a shallow pediment in the centre of the Union Street facade bears the hotel's name and the date 1928. A projecting corbelled bay beneath the pediment has a geometric moulded base, and its windows are flanked by shallow pilasters. The main entrance is sheltered by a narrow corbelled canopy. The first floor bay windows have been replaced, but most other windows, which are timber-framed with leadlit double-hung sashes, have been retained. Red canopies, some of canvas, have been added to several of the ground floor windows and doors.
