What is recorded here
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1820, with two-bay two-storey wing to north-west, forming L-plan, with flat-roofed porch in angle and with flat-roofed extensions to north. Now in use as public house. Hipped and pitched slate roof with cast-iron rainwater goods and rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls, south gable corners rounded, one with wheel guard, and with some decorative render quoins. Timber sliding one-over-one pane sash windows in square-headed openings with stone sills. Moulded rendered shopfront to southern elevation with fixed timber windows between four pilasters having decorative capitals supporting cornice with console brackets.
Situated on a prominent site near the Abbey, at the northwestern end of Holycross Bridge, this public house forms an attractive part of the historic precinct around the abbey. This building, with its L-plan, low two-storey form and rounded corners and decorative quoins adds variety and character to the street near the abbey. The retention of a good-quality shopfront and of timber sash windows enhances the architectural heritage value.
