The Shoulder Of Mutton Public House

The Shoulder of Mutton Public House, dated 1825, is an early example of architecture in an area that underwent significant redevelopment in the late 19th century. This three-storey building is constructed of painted small block, coursed gritstone. The upper floor features four windows set on sill courses, and there is a moulded stone eaves cornice. The windows are later 19th-century sashes. Above the main doorway, there is a window framed by a thin fluted pilaster, complete with a frieze and a shallow cornice. The ground floor has two windows flanking a six-panel door, which is topped by a stilted semi-circular arched fanlight. The doorway is accentuated by imposts leading to a small incised voussoir arch that includes a dated keystone. To the right, there is a side door, and to the left, a carriageway with a very shallow camber to the arch.
