What is recorded here
Detached five-bay two-storey house and public house, built 1832, with later extension to side (east) and recent rear extension (south). Hipped slate and artificial slate roof having rendered chimneystacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Painted lined-and-ruled walls. Square-headed openings with six-over-six timber sliding sash windows having concrete sills. Round-headed opening with fixed pane window to rear. Square-headed door opening with timber glazed door having overlight blank. Recent shopfront consists of timber pilasters supporting timber awning, surrounding rubble stone walls and square-headed openings with timber fittings. Pair of rubble stone piers to east.
An integral part of the streetscape, this building retains much of its original form and character. Possibly built as a hotel or inn, it is marked out by its large scale. Though altered by the insertion of a recent shopfront, it retains much of its historic fabric, particularly the timber sliding sash windows.
