Rose And Crown

The Rose and Crown is an inn with an adjoining cottage, dating from the late 16th century to the early 17th century. It features a timber frame construction with both plastered and exposed sections, topped with a long straw thatch and plain tile roofs. The original cottage has a lobby entry and is one storey with an attic; part of it has been demolished and replaced by a two-storey building with three timber-framed bays. There is a tall local brick ridge stack and a painted brick gable end stack on the right side. The cottage has a 19th-century panelled door and a shuttered horizontal sliding sash window. The inn has two modern ground floor casement windows and a door, along with two first-floor small paned horizontal sliding sash windows and a central casement window. The central bay at both floor levels has sealed original mullioned side lights. Inside, the cottage features a relined inglenook hearth, a cambered tie beam, and original rafters, while the inn includes stop-chamfered cross beams and floor joists, as well as an inglenook hearth.
