Description

The Lord Nelson is an early 19th-century public house, later converted into a house. It was extended in the late 19th century. The building is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a slate roof. The original rectangular section faces southeast and is two storeys high, with attic space. A single-storey stable range is located to the right, featuring a roof of red clay pantiles. A large, two-storey extension was added to the left in the late 19th century. The ground floor of the original building has two late 19th-century sash windows, each with six panes of glass, and a centrally located doorway that has been converted into a sash window with four panes. The first floor features a wooden oriel window, also with late 19th-century sashes, with four, six, and four panes of glass respectively. The attic has two late 19th-century sash windows, each with four panes, set within gabled dormers that have wooden finials. The roof is a gambrel style with parapet gables. A 20th-century door is situated in the left extension. The stable range features a halved door, a plain boarded door, and a 20th-century casement window. A late 19th-century gas lamp, now converted to electric lighting and attached to a bracket, stands in front of the left extension. Historically, an inlet of the sea extended toward Ramsey village, meaning the oriel window would have originally offered views of the sea in all directions.
