Description

The Fortescue Arms is a public house, originally two houses with a single-storey range to the south. It largely dates from the early 18th century, with additions and alterations in the early 19th century, 1855, and the 20th century. The building is constructed of colourwashed rubble and brick, with pantile and slate roofs featuring decorative brick eaves, two ridge stacks, and a single gable stack.

The two-storey main block has an attic and five bays, with a two-bay single-storey rubble range projecting to the south, rebuilt in brick in 1855. A doorway is located on the left-hand side, featuring a pilastered doorcase topped by an ornate hood supported by scrolled brackets. The door itself is double-planked. Flanking the doorway are single mid-19th century canted bay windows, each containing three plain sashes. Further mid-19th century canted bay windows are situated to the right, also containing three plain sashes. Above these, three glazing bar sashes are visible on the left, with a three-light casement and a two-light casement to the right, all with segmental heads. The bays added in 1855 feature two glazing bar sashes with wooden lintels, including a datestone inscribed "1855" below. Two gabled dormers extend from the attic on the left, each with a small glazing bar sash window.
