Description
The Dun Cow Hotel, The Cottage, and Courtyard Wines is a hotel, house, and shop that was formerly a coaching inn, with origins dating back to the 18th century. It features late 18th to early 19th century elements along with later alterations. The front is made of scored rendered brick, while the right side facing Rugby Road is constructed of yellow and red brick in Flemish bond, topped with a brick dentil cornice. The building has old tile hipped roofs, hipped to the right, and includes a parapet at the front, with brick ridge and left end stacks.
The structure has a courtyard plan and stands two storeys tall with a six-window range. The third bay features a wide carriage arch flanked by thin wood pilasters and a simple entablature, leading to two 12-panelled doors. The fifth bay has a large square 19th-century painted wood porch over the pavement, supported by square piers and topped with an octagonal panelled entablature. The ground floor of the fourth and sixth bays has tripartite sashes, while the third and fifth bays contain 16-pane and 12-pane sashes, respectively. The windows are adorned with rusticated rendered flat arches that have keyblocks. The parapet includes a string course, coping, and a long moulded octagonal panel.
On the right side facing Rugby Road, there is a five-window range with sashes that have gauged brick flat arches. A one-storey-and-attic 19th-century range on the right has a four-panelled door with an overlight, a sash window, and a 20th-century three-light window. The courtyard features irregular ranges, with part of the left range forming The Cottage. There is also a barn opposite the entrance, which has been converted to Courtyard Wines. The interior has not been inspected.
