Description
The Baker's Arms Public House is a building with origins dating back to the 17th century, although its front has been significantly altered by an early 20th-century public house frontage. It stands two storeys high, featuring a timber-framed and plastered structure with tiled roofs. The upper storey projects at the front, while the ground floor has been rebuilt. The building has a three-window range of double-hung sashes with glazing bars on the upper storey, with the centre window having an arched head.
