Description
The Saracen's Head is a house that has been converted into an inn, built in the early 19th century. It features red brick construction with a painted dressed sandstone plinth and a slate roof, designed in an L-shape with three storeys.

The façade consists of three bays with 16-pane glazing bar sash windows, which have painted stone cills and lintels. The first floor has 12-pane sashes, while the ground floor features tripartite windows. The central entrance is a six-panelled door, with the lower two panels flush and the top panel glazed, framed by a three-part rectangular overlight and a Greek Doric doorcase that includes unfluted three-quarter columns, a frieze, and a triangular pediment. There is a two-bay return front on the right side and a two-storey wing at the rear. The interior has not been inspected.
