Description
The Rampant Lion Public House, originally a villa, dates from the mid to late 19th century and has been altered over time. It is constructed of red brick, primarily in header bond with some courses of stretchers, and features sandstone dressings that are now painted white. The slate roof has a zig-zag pattern of blue and grey tiles and is topped with an ornamented ridge. The building has a rectangular plan resembling a hall-and-crosswing design and is built in the Gothic style.
It stands two storeys high with a cellar and attic, showcasing a three-window facade. The left side has a slightly projected gabled portion, while the right side features a gabled wing with a two-storey canted bay. Architectural details include a chamfered stone plinth, a buttressed entrance, and steeply pitched gables with stone copings. The central entrance boasts a segmental-pointed doorway with a heavily moulded surround and a gablet that contains a blind quatrefoil.
All the windows have quoined jambs and segmental-pointed heads, with cusped traceried heads for the lights: there are four and three lights to the left, two lights above the door, and one, two, and one light in the canted bay. Additionally, the left gable features a quatrefoil set in a diamond, and the right-hand gable has a small single-light window, with a flagmast now attached to the left of this. A tall chimney rises from the junction with the wing. There is a high screen wall attached to the left corner, with some windows in the left gable similar to those at the front. A 20th-century single-storey addition is present on the right-hand return wall. The interior has been altered.
