Description
The Old Star Inn is a public house that dates from the late 18th century and was rebuilt in the mid-19th century. It is constructed from rubble and dressed magnesian limestone and features a Welsh slate roof. The building has two storeys and three windows on the first floor.
The left side of the ground floor has earlier rubble walling with quoins on the left and includes stone steps leading to a door with a 4-pane overlight beneath a flat arch, to the right of which is a 16-pane sash window with a projecting stone sill and flat arch. The first floor has later walling with a similar sash window located beneath the eaves.
On the right side, there is a 6-panel door with a 4-pane overlight beneath a flat arch, flanked by windows on each floor that match those on the left. The first-floor windows also have flat arches beneath the eaves. The building has cement-rendered end stacks and a central brick ridge stack. There is a 20th-century toilet block located to the rear left, which is not of special interest.
