Description

The Three Horseshoes is a cottage that has been converted into a public house, dating from the 17th century and later in the 17th century. It features a timber frame, is plaster rendered, and has a half-hipped reed thatched roof with a 19th-century gault brick ridge stack. The west end has two bays that are one storey and an attic, with one dormer on the front. There is a small 19th-century horizontal sliding sash window and a smaller casement window for the cellar. The doorway is located between the cellar and the central bay. The east end has a two-storey bay that may have been a rebuild of the parlour bay, featuring a twelve-pane hung sash window on the first floor and a small-pane horizontal sliding sash window on the ground floor.
