The Talbot Inn

The Talbot Inn is a house that has been converted into an inn. It dates from the late 17th century and has seen later additions and alterations. The building is timber-framed with rendered infill set on a rendered stone plinth, topped with a slate roof. It has an L-shaped plan with a short range extending to the rear on the right side and stands two storeys high.

The timber framing features large irregular square and rectangular panels, with four panels extending from the cill to the wall-plate. The front has long curving tension braces, while the rear has long straight braces. The left gable end is painted to imitate the timber framing. There are three windows, which are large late 19th-century casements, with the first-floor windows positioned directly below the eaves. The building has 20th-century ledged doors located at the far left and between the centre and right windows. A red brick ridge stack is situated between the left and centre windows, with an external end stack on the right and an integral end stack for the rear range.

Inside, the ground-floor rooms feature chamfered ceiling beams, including a chamfered spine beam in the left room and a richly moulded spine beam in the centre room, which has been combined with the right room. There is a 20th-century flat-roofed addition at the rear, which is not of special architectural interest.
