Description
The Black Bull Inn is an inn built in the late 18th century and early 19th century, consisting of several constructions. It features coursed rubble, with the front facing the Market Place being pebble-dashed, and has roofs made of Welsh slate and stone tiles, along with rendered and rebuilt brick chimney stacks. The building is L-shaped, with a front range that connects to a wing and a former cottage located at the right rear, which faces Black Bull Lane.
The front range is two stories high and has five windows. It includes a two-leaf, four-panel door on the left and a two-leaf, six-panel door on the right. The windows are scattered four-pane sashes set in deep reveals, with some having had their intermediate glazing bars removed. The roof is low-pitched and covered with Welsh slate, featuring end and ridge stacks.
The rear wing, which is also two stories tall, has three windows and consists of two builds. It has a 20th-century door and casement windows, and its low-pitched stone-tiled roof has a central ridge stack with a water table. There is a former two-story, two-window cottage at a right angle to the rear of the wing, which has a boarded door with a flush lintel and alternating jambs in its projecting gable end. This cottage also has a stone-tiled roof with an end stack.
On the rear side of the front range, which faces the churchyard, there are scattered sashes and two blocked square windows. Inside the front range, there is a painted carved stone fireplace and overmantel dated 1828, decorated with foliage. The building is included for its group value.
