Shamrock Hotel, Kyneton


Shamrock Hotel, KynetonThe Shamrock Hotel in Kyneton has a wonderful Art Deco brick facade. A second storey balcony provides a verandah over the footpath.

The brick of the balcony and it's roof contrast nicely with the cream render on the supporting columns. The end is also rendered and bears the name of the pub.

Above the doorway, the roofline steps up and this part of the brickwork is decorated with several vertical lines of darker bricks. Elsewhere, the decoration consists of horizontal lines of darker coloured bricks.

At the side street, to the left in the above photo, the building curves around the corner adding another deco feature to this elegant building.
