The Golden Slipper Public House

The Golden Slipper Public House is a house, now a public house, dating back to around 1500, with extensions and alterations from the 18th century, the 19th century, and the late 19th century. The earliest part is timber-framed with a rendered and whitewashed front, and an inn front framed in timber. A later 18th-century extension is of orange-brown brick in English garden-wall bond. The late 19th-century front uses red brick in Flemish bond with a painted stone plinth and stone dressings, and has a rear of orange-cream brick in English garden-wall bond. The roofs are slate with brick stacks.

The original three-storey section has an attic and a gabled front with a jettied first and second floor. The second floor is also jettied on the right return, which is underbuilt by The Royal Oak Public House. The gable features scalloped bargeboards with a pointed finial. To the left is a two-storey, cellar-and-attic extension with a two-window front. The three-storey section has an inn front with grooved pilasters, a projecting modillioned cornice on grooved brackets, disused double doors with raised and fielded panels, and a two-light window with a colonnette mullion over a panelled riser. First and second-floor windows are single-pane sashes with shallow sills; the attic has a squat three-pane window in the gable. A small fixed light is located in the second-floor return. The extension contains a cellar opening beneath the ground-floor window. A doorcase, approached by stone steps, has a cornice on carved scroll consoles, grooved pilaster jambs, a panelled door and overlight in the reveal. A tripartite window features single-pane sashes with shaped heads. The window surround has pilaster jambs with stone bases and imposts, a faceted keyblock, and an incised frieze beneath a moulded cornice hood; the window has a moulded stone sill on shaped block brackets. First-floor windows are single-pane sashes in round-arched surrounds with pilaster jambs, moulded stone imposts and a keyblock, and a stone hood mould returned on each side to form an impost string. A moulded dentilled and modillioned eaves cornice has a heavy carved terminal bracket to the left. The attic has a box dormer with a dentilled cornice on pilaster strips and a single-pane sash window. The hipped roof has wrought-iron corner scrolls. An inn sign in the form of a moulded slipper in a wrought-iron surround projects between the first-floor windows. At the rear are two gabled ranges; the left range is three storeys and has an attic, while the right range is three storeys and both have 20th-century windows. The interior was not inspected.
