Red Lion Inn and Red Lion Cottage

The Red Lion Inn and Red Lion Cottage are a public house with an adjoining cottage, dated 1738 as inscribed on the public house’s door lintel, with subsequent alterations. The building is constructed of squared rubble, with the cottage portion rendered. It has a concrete-tiled roof and grey brick chimney stacks. The structure appears to have originated as a linear-plan farmstead, possibly with a cross-passage and byre to the right, now adapted into a continuous two-storey, six-bay front. The right-hand bay on the ground floor of the cottage forms part of the public house.

The public house section features four bays, with raised and chamfered quoins. It has a replaced door in the third bay, set within a tooled surround displaying the inscription "TH 1738". Two replaced two-pane sash windows are set within architraves to the left. To the right is a 3-light sash window, a horse-tethering ring, and a blocked doorway. Above the doorway is a blank bay flanked by replaced two-pane sashes in architraves to the left and projecting surrounds with extended sills to the right.

The cottage section, comprising two wide bays, has raised and chamfered quoins. It incorporates a late 20th-century bay window to the left of a pair of gabled porches. Two replaced casement windows are located above.

The roof is steeply pitched with swept eaves, featuring rebuilt end stacks and three ridge stacks. A rear wing to the right, along with the late 20th-century rear additions and gabled porches of the cottage section, are not considered to be of special interest. The cottage is included for group value.
