Description

The Old King's Arms Public House is a building that serves as both a house and a public house, now functioning as a shop and public house. It dates from the mid-18th century and early 18th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century and late 20th century. The structure is built of brick, featuring stone and stucco dressings, and has pantile roofs.

The building has cogged eaves and a single coped gable, with two gable and one ridge stacks. The shop on the left side is two storeys high and has a three-window range of 20th-century casements with rubbed brick heads. Below these windows, there is a wooden shopfront from 1989 designed in a late 19th-century style, featuring a recessed central door flanked by single plate glass windows beneath a full-width fascia.

The rear wing has cogged eaves and coped gables, standing three storeys tall with a three-window range of segment-headed glazing bar sashes, and above them, three similar sashes with flat heads. The public house section on the right has a stucco ground floor, a plinth, and a first-floor band. It is two storeys plus attics and features a six-window range of glazing bar sashes with rubbed brick heads, with the end windows being blank.

Between the fourth and fifth windows from the left, there is a cast iron royal Arms set within a corniced Classical surround. Above this, two raking dormers contain glazing bar Yorkshire sashes. Below the royal Arms is a moulded stone doorcase with a cornice and a 19th-century half-glazed door, flanked by two plain sashes with chamfered openings and keystones. To the left, there is a segment-headed carriage opening with a keystone and imposts, inscribed with "Paxton's Yard." The colourwashed brick rear wing, dating from the 18th century, is two storeys high with a three-window range and features a rendered gable and a brick addition from 1989.
