Description

The Nag's Head Public House, located on Fenkle Street, dates primarily to the 17th century, although it has undergone significant alterations over time. The building comprises numbers 9 and 11, which are two storeys and attic in height, with three windows each; and number 13, which is three storeys high with a two-window-plus-one configuration. The front of the building is painted, topped by a steep-pitched slate roof featuring a catslide to the rear and two brick chimneys on the ridge. Numbers 9 and 11 have two late 19th-century gabled dormers and late-glazed sash windows. A modern two-bay shop window fronts the building, flanking a central doorway leading to number 11, with a pair of doorways on the left. Number 13 features late-glazed and plate-glass sash windows, a three-storey square bay that likely dates to the 18th century for the lower two storeys, with the top storey added around 1900, and a gabled top. A worn mounting block sits to the right. To the right of what was formerly a coach arch is a slightly projecting late 19th-century rough ashlar end bay with a single shouldered window on each floor. The former coach arch provided access to a stable yard and theatre at the rear. Inside number 13, a two-light mullioned window is built into the rear wall on the first floor.
