(Formerly listed as The Prince of Wales Public House)

GV
II

Former public House. Probably early C19 with later C19 and C20 extensions and modernisation. Main part is timber-framing clad in painted weatherboards on brick footings; brick stacks and chimneyshafts; peg-tile roof.

Plan: T-plan building. The main block is built along the street facing north. Originally it was two rooms with central cross passage but the partitions have been removed to create more bar space. One-room plan rear block projects at right angles from the centre with single storey integral outshots each side giving the whole ground plan a rectangular shape. Main stack at the junction between the two blocks. C20 extensions to rear.

Two storeys with single storey outshots.

Exeteror: Symmetrical two-window front. The first floor windows are 16-pane sashes. The ground floor has canted bay windows with Gothick cast iron corner posts, front 12-pane sashes and side eight-pane sashes. The monopitch roof over these bays is continued as a shallow pent roof across the whole front. Central doorway contains a part-glazed plank door. The roof is hipped both ends. The other windows around the building are C20 casements, most with glazing bars.

Interior: Shows mostly the result of various C20 modernisations. Roof not inspected.

This is a particularly attractive former public house which forms part of a group of listed buildings at the western approach to Hadlow.
