Description

The Herbert Arms Hotel is a house that has been converted into an inn, dating from the late 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It is constructed of painted brick and features a slate roof with external end stacks that were rebuilt in red brick during the late 19th century. The building has an L-plan layout with a short range to the rear on the right and a single-storey addition, which may have originally been stables, also to the right.

The hotel stands three storeys tall and has a toothed eaves cornice. It has three wide bays with segmental-headed glazing bar sash windows, featuring two windows in the center on both the ground and first floors. The central entrance is marked by a plain wooden doorcase that holds a four-panel door, with the top panels now glazed. There is a late 20th-century flat-roofed brick porch at the right corner, which abuts the 19th-century single-storey addition, but this porch is not considered to have special architectural interest. The single-storey addition includes two 20th-century casement windows, a moulded brick eaves cornice, and coped verges on brick kneelers at the right gable end.
