Description
The King's Head Public House is a public house, possibly originally built as an inn, dating from the late 15th century. It features a timber-framed structure with a plain tiled roof, standing three storeys high and displaying a wide two-window range. The central doorway is flanked by a continuous band of windows on the ground floor, which replicate the traceried detail of the original windows. The first storey juts out, framed in large panels with cusped arch bracing at each end, and centrally features trefoiled panels. The paired windows on this level form two 6-light casements with traceried heads. The second storey also juts out and is framed in large panels with plain bracing and a joweled central post. Here, the paired windows form 6-light casements with leaded panes. Inside, there are remains of a wall painting that has been exposed and conserved on an internal wall, depicting the Last Supper.
