This may have been the Ellenborough Hotel...Oriel road is very short and this building is the only one that looked like it could have been a hotel. Also the only one bearing the name Ellenborough.
This one is at the junction of Parabola road along Bayshill road. All taken today.

I was told that this Hotel during World War Two was used by the Government? This is the Bear Hotel at Hungerford today.

This I assume is the former Rodney Hotel, No 61-69, Rodney road Cheltenham. No 61 is directly behind the Range Rover in the first photograph. The numbers getting higher from right to left, 69 is on the corner.
