On the 24 April, a few weeks ago, a lorry crashed into and demolished the portico and Doric columns at the front of this hotel causing a gaping hole in the front of the Burton Hotel. Fortunately no one was injured. The portico dated from the mid-18th century. See the hotel as it was before the accident Image The accident has provided a rare opportunity to see the timber-frame structure behind the brick facade. Image]
