Description

The Old Queen's Head Public House, formerly known as Hall i' th' Ponds, is a building located on Pond Hill in Sheffield. It dates back to around 1475 and has undergone mid and late 19th century and 20th century additions, with restoration in the mid-20th century. The front range is timber-framed with rendered nogging, brick, and dressed stone gables, topped by a steeply pitched slate roof featuring two rendered gable stacks. The rear additions are rendered and have hipped slate roofs along with a single rendered gable stack.

The exterior of the front block is two storeys high with a two-window range. The first floor has close studding with a coved jetty and eaves, and features two large three-light glazing bar casements. The ground floor showcases figure-carved posts and a carved bressumer, although the original studs have been replaced with rendered infill panels. To the right, there is a recessed 19th-century door, flanked on the left by a paired plain sash window and on the right by an altered cross casement. The left gable has dressed stone at the ground floor, showing the tops of two posts and a renewed bressumer. Above this, there are two large three-light glazing bar casements, and below, to the left, is a 19th-century Tudor arched door. To the right, there is a 19th-century cross casement and a small two-light mullioned window.

A three-storey rear addition features a first-floor sill band and a 16-pane sash window, with a 12-pane sash above it. Both of these windows have multi keystone lintels, and below, there is another 16-pane sash. To the left, there is a canted corner with a blocked door. At the rear, a late 19th-century addition has been reduced to a single storey with a flat roof and includes three 16-pane sash windows.

Inside, the ground floor has three figure-carved posts and may contain additional timber framing and roof structures.
