Description

The Red Lion is a public house dating from the 17th century, with modifications and extensions made in the mid-19th century. The original section is constructed of red brick, featuring vitrified headers arranged in a chequerwork pattern on the ground floor and diamond patterns on the first floor. It stands on a coursed ironstone plinth, while the later addition is also made of red brick. The building has clay tile roofs and is designed in a T-plan over two storeys, with the earlier block facing the road.

The windows are small-paned casements, with the ground floor of the earlier block having three-light windows, while the others have two lights. The ground floor windows and doorways are topped with painted rendered square heads. The southeast elevation features two plank doors, with the left-hand door located under a gabled, bracketed hood. The first floor windows are topped with small gablets, and both the door hood and the gable have pierced, wavy-edged bargeboards. The earlier block also has a brick band at the first floor level, and there is a variety of chimney stacks, including an external stack on the road elevation of the earlier block.
