Description

The Former Prince of Wales Public House, located at Nos 242 and 244 Bowling Old Lane in West Bowling, is an early 19th-century two-storey house, with No 242 being a slightly later extension. The building is constructed from sandstone and brick, featuring chamfered rusticated quoins on No 244. It has a gable end roof covered with stone slates, saddle stones, and prominent kneelers, along with corniced chimneys.

The façade includes three tripartite stone-framed square mullion windows. There are paired doorways on the right side that lead to a flight of steps with plain rails, and a similar doorway is found on the left side. The extension has three sash windows on the first floor, two light unframed square mullion windows on the ground floor, and a four-panel door with steps leading up and plain rails.
