Description
Rushey Inn Cottages are three cottages that were formerly an inn, built in the early 18th century and incorporating a core from the 15th century. The building features a red brick structure with a pantile roof, brick coped gables, four brick ridge stacks, and a single gable stack. The eaves are dentillated, and the building is L-shaped, consisting of two storeys plus a garret and six bays in total. There is a band at the first floor level.
The central four bays, which are only two storeys high, are recessed. The two central bays each have a single doorway with part glazed doors and plain surrounds, flanked by single casement windows. The outer gabled bays each contain a single casement window. On the first floor, there are four similar casement windows, with a blocked window above the right-hand doorway. The left gable has a blocked attic window, while the right gable features a single small casement. All casements include glazing bars, and all openings are set under segmental arches. The ground floor windows have had their openings altered.
To the right, there is a set-back lean-to with a doorway. At the rear, there is a six-bay wing. Notably, Margaret Tudor stopped here on July 12, 1503, on her way north to marry James IV of Scotland.
