Description
The Bay Horse Public House is a public house dating from the late 17th to early 18th century, with some alterations. It features heavily-rendered masonry, a renewed pantiled roof, and rebuilt brick chimney stacks. The building has a through-passage plan, is two low storeys high, and consists of four wide bays. The central entrance is a four-panel door set in a damaged stone architrave with a cornice. The window openings to the left of the door are likely original, while those to the right have been altered. The ground floor has replaced casements, and on the first floor, there are two 24-pane sashes with horizontal-sliding 8-pane centre lights on the left, and a 16-pane horizontal-sliding sash alongside a replaced casement on the right. The left verge has a raised, reversed-stepped gable, and the right verge is rebuilt in brick. The roof is steeply pitched with slightly-swept eaves and end stacks. At the rear, there is a two-storey off-centre gabled stair-wing featuring a round-arched 9-pane stair window with an intersecting-tracery head. Late 20th-century rear additions flanking the stair-wing and a detached rear wing on the left are not of special interest.
