Description
The Wheatsheaf Public House is an early 19th-century public house located on Manor Road in St Helen Auckland. It is constructed from coursed rubble with a painted ashlar plinth, quoins, and dressings. The building features a Welsh slate roof with stone gable copings and stone chimneys topped with ashlar coping. It has a height of one and two storeys and is arranged in a 1:2:1 storey configuration with 1:5:2 bays.
The main block includes a central six-panel door with a small overlight, framed by a surround of pilasters and an entablature. The windows are renewed sash windows with painted wedge stone lintels and projecting stone sills. There is a first-floor band and quoins at each end of the building.
To the left, there is a one-storey wing featuring a six-panel door within a doorcase of pilasters and an entablature. The right wing has two renewed four-pane sashes, a louvred ventilator inserted on the left side, and a wall that has been rebuilt below without a plinth, with quoins only visible on the upper courses to the right. The low-pitched roofs have stone gable copings and end chimneys for each section of the building.
