Three Tuns Inn

The Three Tuns Inn is a late 16th-century building, later remodelled in the mid to late 19th century, and now serves as an inn. It retains connections to a nearby brewery. The building is predominantly timber framed, with sections rebuilt in coursed limestone rubble and brick, and stuccoed to the front to imitate ashlar. It has a slate roof, hipped to the right side. The building’s layout is L-shaped, likely originally encompassing a two-bay open hall plus a screen passage bay, and a two-bay cross wing to the right.

The building has two storeys and an attic. Dormers are visible on the eaves, with slate-hung sides and two-light casement windows. A brick end stack is located to the left, and a ridge stack is positioned on the cross wing to the right. The first floor features an early 19th-century glazing bar sash window to the left, and a mid-20th-century three-light casement window to the right. The ground floor has a central, mid-19th-century four-pane sash window with a bracketed hood. A mid-19th-century shop front is on the right, featuring two four-pane sash windows and a half-glazed, panelled door with margin lights, panelled reveals, and a bracketed hood. A mid to late 19th-century two-panelled double door, with arched top panels, is located off-centre to the left, also with a bracketed hood. A mid to late 19th-century one-storey lean-to addition has been built to the right, filling in the former passageway, featuring a three-light window with a thin transom, pilastered surround, and cornice. An inn sign with an elaborate wrought iron bracket is also present. A plaque within the left end stack commemorates Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee of 1897.

The interior includes a circa 1600 fireplace in the former cross wing to the right, constructed of crudely pointed coursed limestone rubble with a cambered, chamfered lintel. Above the fireplace is a fading circa 1600 wall painting with a double-lined border and a central panel bearing the initials "M B”. A late 17th-century one-flight staircase is located adjacent to the eastern stack, featuring shaped balusters, a fluted handrail, and a square newel post. A similar balustrade extends to the basement steps. While much altered, the former hall range to the east still shows indications of the former screens passage, with blocked doorways at each end. The building's plan has been damaged by recent alterations.

The Three Tuns Inn is attached to a still-working small brewery.
