Description

The Golden Lion Public House is an inn dated 1679, with alterations made in the 19th century. It features painted rendered stone with a plinth and painted mock timber framing, topped with a synthetic tile roof that imitates stone slates, along with rendered and brick chimneys. The building has three low storeys and a four-window range. A plain stone surround frames a four-panel door with a plain overlight in the third bay, alongside six-pane sash windows: two to the left of the door, three on the first floor, and one on the second floor in the third bay, all with surrounds painted to mimic timber framing. To the right, there is a full-height square bay window with six-pane sashes and plain sashes on the return. All ground floor windows are set low in the wall. An inn sign hangs from a large wrought-iron bracket at the top of the second bay. The roof features a rendered left chimney raised above the adjacent building and a central brick chimney. Inside, there are steps that lead down into the building, and the ground floor has been altered. The building's position on the castle ditch indicates that encroachment began in the early 17th century.
