Description

The Prince of Wales Public House is a range of three cottages that have been converted into a public house. It dates from the early 19th century or earlier. The building is timber framed, with a plastered and weatherboarded exterior, and is topped with handmade red clay tiles. It has four bays facing southeast, featuring an axial stack in the second bay from the left and an external stack at the right end. At the rear, there is a full-length outshout, likely original, that creates a catslide roof. There is a single-storey extension at the rear of the right end, which has two stacks, and a 20th-century flat-roofed single-storey extension at the rear of the left end. The building is two storeys tall. On the ground floor, there are two late 19th-century sash windows with four lights each, along with one 20th-century sash window with twelve lights. The first floor features three early 19th-century sash windows with sixteen lights each. There is one four-panel door and one flush four-panel door located in lean-to porches, as well as a plain boarded door on the right return.
