Description
The Heart of All England Tavern is a late 19th-century front added to a house that dates back to the 17th or early 18th century. This earlier structure can be partly seen from the rear and from some fragmentary quoins on the right at ground floor level. The building has two storeys and an attic, featuring three windows on the first floor. The fenestration is irregular, with a pair of narrow lights in the attic gable, a cross window to the left on the first floor, a small window with moulded dressings in the centre, and a three-light transomed window to the right with a drip mould. The windows are casement style.
The ground floor has a public house front with a central doorway flanked by flat bays that have many panes. Fluted pilasters are positioned at the sides, supporting a dentil fascia. The slate roof has a crested ridge. At the rear, there is a two-storey annexe with three windows, built of rubble with quoined dressings and modillions from the 19th century. Notably, the north-east corner features a large medieval corbel head or small gargoyle located below the eaves.
The tavern is part of a group that includes Nos 1 to 15 (odd), with No 1 being of local interest.
