Description
Bay Horse Cottage and Bay Horse Public House are two buildings constructed in two phases. The early 18th century section on the right is two storeys high with three widely spaced bays, while the left section, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, may have originally been two cottages and is also two storeys with two bays.
The right section features roughcast brick walls, pantiled roofs, and rebuilt brick chimney stacks. There is a central segmental archway with impost blocks and a keystone, leading to a boarded door. To the left, there is an early 19th century canted bay window with 8+12+8-pane sashes. On the right, there are two boarded doors and two sashes. Above, there is a central replaced sash flanked by 12-pane sashes, with the windows cutting through stepped eaves courses. A diamond-shaped sundial, dated 1739, with an iron gnomon, is located on the first floor to the right of the central window. The roof is steeply pitched with swept eaves and rebuilt brick verges, featuring left end and two ridge stacks.
The left section has a central replaced door behind a wide early 20th century wooden porch with a lean-to roof. It also has flanking early 19th century canted two-storey bays with sill bands and 12-pane sashes in flat-faced surrounds. The roof is steeply pitched with rebuilt brick verges at the left end and centre, and tall ridge stacks above the verges. The rear of the right section has scattered 12-pane horizontal-sliding sashes.
