Pollard Inn

The Pollard Inn is a former manor house that later became a farmhouse and is now a public house. It was built in 1637, with alterations and extensions made around 1700, and was converted and extended for its current use around 1983. The building is constructed of coursed squared red sandstone, with two extension wings made of brown brick in English bond, one of which is now rendered. It has slate roofs and features a large chimney stack on the original structure.

The entrance front of the building is two storeys high with an attic and has a single gabled front. To the right, there is a two-storey, three-window wing with a projecting single-storey porch. The porch has a studded door and features two-light mullioned windows on its sides. The gabled front includes a 12/12 sash window on the ground floor, an 8/8 sash window with a cambered stone arch on the first floor, and a three-light stone mullioned window in the attic. The wing has small-pane sash windows with one-course segmental brick arches, raised brick bands at the first floor and eaves levels, and a moulded cornice.

On the left side of the building, there is a three-bay return of the original structure next to a two-storey, one-bay extension. The original building features a massive projecting full-height chimney stack at its centre. On the ground floor to the right, there is a three-light flush casement window that has been inserted into an unblocked original window opening, while the first floor has stone mullioned windows. The extension has a 20th-century bow window on the ground floor and raised brick bands similar to those on the entrance front.

Inside, the lower storeys display exposed beams and ceiling joists, while the attic reveals exposed purlins and a ridgetree. The ground floor includes a firebeam, and there is an elaborate stone fireplace with a corniced overmantel and floral decoration on the frieze at the first floor level.
