Description

The Carpenters Arms Public House is an early 19th-century establishment with later 19th-century alterations, located on Witham Street in Boston. It features red and brown brick construction with a smooth red brick finish and a part hipped pantile roof, which includes two gable stacks and a single ridge stack.

The exterior has three storeys and a three-bay front. The late 19th-century saloon bar front includes two half-glazed panelled doors with narrow overlights, flanked by plain pilasters. The right-hand door is accompanied by a single plain sash window with pilasters, while the left-hand door mirrors this arrangement. Ten pilasters support a continuous fascia with a console. On the first floor, there are three glazing bar sash windows, and on the second floor, there are three smaller similar windows.

On the return to Union Street, there is a plain sash window and a half-glazed door, with pilasters supporting a shorter fascia and console similar to the front. To the left, there is a tall stair window, and above it, a further glazing bar sash. The second floor features a glazing bar sash and a Yorkshire sash. All sash windows have brick segmental heads.

The public house was first licensed in 1875. The interior has not been inspected.
