Description

10/33 BLYTH BRIDGE STREET NZ 3181 NE (North side) 10/33 Boathouse Tavern II Public house, probably late C17, altered. Squared stone with cut dressings, stuccoed and painted; blue slate roof with C20 brick stack. South front 2 storeys, in 2 parts. Taller, open-pedimented 2-bay part on right has rusticated quoins. Renewed door with overlight, in right bay, in architrave with pulvinated frieze and segmental pediment. Renewed fenestration in similar architraves with moulded sills on brackets and triangular pediments enclosing stylised foliage carving. 4-bay right return shows blocked doorway with raised stone surround. Interior much altered.

Probably the oldest building in Blyth, and in the C19 attached to a brewery (now demolished) which lay behind; extensive brick-arched cellars are said to underlie the whole site.

Lower 6-bay part to left of C17 block is later addition, altered and not of special interest.
