Built of local granite as the Royal Hotel for the town's surveyor James Larmer, this grand building was purchased by the Oddfellows Friendship Society in 1882. The society made numerous alterations before the building fell vacant & was then converted into flats. It was still in good conditions when purchased by the historical society who turned it into a museum.
