Craig Mhor Hotel

This photograph of the Craig Mhor Hotel, in 1904, at first glance, shows an astonishing similarity with the Hotel today, with the same verandah, the same bay windows – very much the same look.

….. however…
This 1998 picture reveals that in 1904, the Hotel was much shorter – the adjoining building was in fact a separate house – the Hotel ended at what is now the middle chimney, the part to the right in the present day photograph being added some time later – though it is believed that the extensions were certainly carried out before the Great War – probably before 1910.

The Hotel closed in 2001, and has been converted into luxury self-catering apartments, with a touch of their former Victorian elegance.
