Description
The Six Bells Public House is a public house built around 1905 by A. N. Prentice. It features banded limestone ashlar and coursed rubble, with ashlar quoins and dressings. The roof is made of Collyweston slate and has three red brick ridge stacks with moulded tops. The building is designed in a U-shape and has a single storey plus attics, with a seven-bay front that includes advanced and gabled end bays.
The central entrance has a four-centred arched doorway with a moulded ashlar surround. To the left of the doorway are three three-light windows, while to the right are a single two-light window and two four-light windows. The roof includes three gabled through-eaves dormers, each featuring a three-light window with ashlar cheeks and slate kneelers. All windows are glazing bar casements with plain ashlar lintels. The left gable has a louvred oval opening with an ashlar surround, and the right gable contains a three-light window. The end bays have side gables that face the central courtyard.
