Description
This is a late 18th-century house located on the north side of Main Street, Bubwith. Originally named Chain Farmhouse, it is now known as Chain Bar House. The house is constructed of brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with darker red brick used for dressings and quoins. The roof is covered with pantiles.
The house is two storeys high with four windows on the first floor. The front entrance features a six-panel door, which is protected by a decorative doorcase with a moulded archway, carved decorations including paterae in the arched corners, fluted pilasters, a beaded frieze, and a pediment incorporating a plaque and swags in the triangular space above. Above the door is a radial fanlight. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars, set within segmental arches that are painted. The window jambs are quoined. A first-floor band and dentil eaves course run along the front of the building. The roof has gable coping and shaped kneelers, with stacks located at the right end and along the ridge. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
