Description
The Boot Public House is an inn dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It features a timber frame with plaster and painted brick, and is designed in an L-shape with two storeys. The building has two ridge stacks and a modern plain tile roof that is half-hipped on the left side. The façade includes three casement windows on the first floor and four on the ground floor, along with a glazed, panelled door. Inside, there are cross beams and a carved and moulded axial beam with leaf stops. The right-hand wing was rebuilt in the 18th century following a fire.
