Description

The Lord Nelson Inn is a public house dating back to 1634, originally built as a house. It features rendered stone and a stone slate roof, with an L-shaped plan that includes a rear wing and stands two storeys tall.

The north front has two gabled bays. On the right side, there is a board door set within a triangular-arched doorway that has a moulded arris and a lintel with a date. To the left, there is a two-light window where the mullion has been removed, along with an inserted opening to its left. A continuous hoodmould runs above these features. On the first floor, a five-light transomed window is situated under a hoodmould, with decorative stops, one of which has been restored. There is a stack in the left roof pitch. The right bay contains an inserted first-floor window and a gable stack. In the left return of this bay, there is a blocked chamfered triangular-arched doorway, which now has a window, positioned to the left of a five-light window, with a continuous hoodmould that returns from the left bay. Above this, there is a six-light window.

At the rear, the building has three gabled bays, with the outer bays projecting and the left bay forming the wing. In the central bay, there is a door to the right of a six-light window featuring a king mullion, although one mullion has been removed. Above this is a six-light transomed window, most of which has had its mullions and transoms removed, located under a dripmould with decorative stops. The dripmould over the ground floor openings continues around the inner return of the right-hand bay, which has otherwise renewed openings. The left bay includes a later first-floor doorway leading to a passage stair, and in its right return, there is a four-light flat-faced mullion window on the first floor, along with plain gutter brackets.
