Description
The Excavator Public House is a house that has been converted into a public house. It dates from the early 19th century and has some additions from around 1970. The building features tooled ashlar stonework and a graduated hipped slate roof, with corniced ashlar stacks on the side walls and a stepped eaves band. It stands two storeys tall with three bays, and there is a large single-storey extension to the east.
The central entrance has a doorcase with a half-glazed panelled door and a plain overlight, all beneath a 20th-century timber porch. On either side of the entrance are 16-pane sash windows, and above them are three similar sash windows with a plain sill band. All the openings are set below raised flat arches with incised and tooled voussoirs. The 20th-century addition to the east does not have any special architectural interest.
