Description

This house, now a public house, dates to the early 18th century, as indicated by “ICE 1718” carved into a door lintel. It is constructed of squared rubble with a graduated stone slate roof and brick stacks. The original design was a 3-bay, 2-storey house, originally configured with a baffle entry, where the main entrance was set back. A two-storey stair wing, originally at the rear, now serves as a porch, and 20th-century extensions have been added to each end of the building. The front elevation originally featured three 2-light double-chamfered mullion windows on each floor, totaling six windows. These now have removed mullions, two have hoodmoulds, and are complemented by two plain casement openings and one round-headed light. The porch has two similar round-headed windows and includes a projecting plinth, an off-centre door, and a coped gable with kneelers and a ball finial. Two ridge stacks are present, along with a later door to the right. A blocked door at the rear retains a moulded surround and a finely carved dated lintel. To the side of this blocked doorway is a 3-light double-chamfered window, and a single-storey wing of slightly later construction is attached. The interior has been extensively altered.
