Public house. c1700 with earlier origins and C20 renovation. Limestone
rubble brought to course, stone slate roof. Central hallway entry, Garden
facade: 2 storeys, 4 first floor windows. Plinth and rusticated quoins.
Board door surmounted by 3 glazed panels in eared architrave beneath a
broken segmental pediment containing C20 coat of arms. Sashes with glazing
bars in architraves with pulvinated friezes beneath broken pediments,
alternately segmental and plain. Gable coping, shaped kneelers, left end
and ridge stacks. Doubled chamfered mullion windows to end gable. Interior
contains several original chamfered cross beams and panelling and an open
string staircase with elaborate bulbous balusters, all of which suggest a

facade may have taken place. C20 renovations resulted in blocking of
central first floor window.
