Description

This is a house, dating from the mid-18th century, and altered since its original construction. It is located in Lotherton Cum Aberford, Aberford, on Main Street South. The front of the building is constructed from squared magnesian limestone, with a rubble wall on the left return and brick and rendered sections at the rear. It has a Welsh slate roof. The main range is rectangular, with a wagon entrance through the centre. There is an outshut to the rear of the left portion and a short brick wing to the rear of the right. The house is three storeys high, with seven bays in a symmetrical arrangement. A tall elliptical-headed archway sits centrally, featuring voussoirs and a pendant keystone that is worn. Above the archway are square blind windows on each floor. There are three windows at ground floor, the one to the left of the archway being altered into a door, and two windows on each floor above, aligned with the ground floor windows. Windows on the ground and first floors have raised keystones on straight lintels, and contain sashes. The first floor windows to the right have twelve panes, while the others have four panes. The second-floor windows are low six-pane top-hung casements to the left and six-pane fixed windows to the right. A small chimney is on the ridge, with another at the left gable, and a multiple-flue chimney at the right gable. A doorway is in the right-hand side of the wagon passage.

The rear brick wing appears to have two-stage loading doors at both the first and second floors, but is otherwise unremarkable. The interior has not been inspected.

The building is depicted on a Plan of Aberford dated 1773, and it is believed to have been constructed as a coaching inn.
