St Maur, number 11 Hocker Hill Street, was built as an inn circa 1732 and substantially remodelled and turned into a dwelling in 1808. An inn stood on or near the site in the 17th century, known as The Crane or the Three Cranes. A plaque records Horatio Nelson stayed here in 1802. The house became St Maur's school for girls, later a doctor's surgery. Converted in 1973 to house a basement restaurant with offices above. Constructed of rendered stone, lined to simulate ashlar, under a slate roof. The forecourt has railings with urn finials to posts. Some early internal features and fittings remain. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=&id=2543
