Description
The Old Bell is a posting and coaching house, now functioning as a restaurant, dating from around 1800 and built for William Bell. It is constructed from hammer-dressed watershot stone and features a slate roof. The building has three bays and three storeys, with quoins at the corners. The central entrance includes a four-panel door topped with a fanlight and an open pediment supported by three-quarter columns. Each floor of bay two has sash windows, while bays one and three feature paired sashes, all framed with square-cut stone surrounds. A brick gable chimney stack is present, and the rear of the building includes two, five, and six-light recessed flat-faced mullion windows, along with taking-in doors leading to the upper floors.
