Buxton - Palace Hotel
The Palace Hotel was opened in 1868. Its magnificent exterior was designed by Henry Currey, architect to the Duke of Devonshire in his time. Other notable works by Currey in Buxton include the Pump Room (1875)(opposite The Crescent) and the nearby Natural Baths (adjacent to The Crescent). Henry Currey also converted two thirds of Buxton's "Devonshire Hospital" stable building into a hospital in 1859. However, he was not responsible for the dome there - see

Palace Hotel, Buxton
Large hotel dating back from 1868, now part of the Britannia Group. The glory days of the past are now behind this establishment, now producing a whiff of faded grandeur.
Grade II Listed Building that seems to dominate the area around the railway station.
The heating bills must be staggering!
