history

The Carlton Tavern, destroyed in 2015, was the second inn with that name on the site. The first Carlton Tavern probably originated in the 1860s and was bombed by a German zeppelin on May 1, 1918 during World War I and destroyed as a result. Frank J. Potter built the new Vernacular Revival style building in 1920-21 at a cost of £ 11,610  . In contrast to most of the surrounding buildings from the 19th century, the structure survived the Second World War .

construction

The building consisted of red and brown bricks that were built in a block bond. The facade on the ground floor was made of stone-colored, unglazed terracotta and brown ox-blood-colored glazed tiles. The lettering was made of tile and terracotta, and the roof was that of clay tiles.

The floor plan was V-shaped and the building had two and a half stories and a basement. The escapes consisted of three fields. The roof was a mansard roof towards the Calton Vale . On the side of the playground, the single-storey wing was provided with a pent roof.

The windows had wooden profile frames made of oak.
