Cock and Bell

The Cock and Bell is a public house dating to circa 1400, with significant alterations in the 16th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with the timber frame exposed on the front and north flank. The roofs are gabled and covered in peg tiles. The building has an "H" plan form with crosswings at the north and south ends, and is two storeys high.

The north crosswing is jettied on its north and west faces, featuring a dragon post with a moulded capital, original jetty brackets, and double bracing on the front. A three-light window on the corner has glazed, hollow-chamfered mullions. The central "hall" block is contemporary with the north crosswing and was formerly jettied along its front; this is now concealed by a single-storey infill block of white plastered brick with a parapet. The south crosswing, dating to the 16th century, displays exposed timber framing with evidence of a former pair of oriel windows, and two original jetty brackets. A window opening with an arch head on the upper floor flank is now blocked with plaster. A large stack projects through the flat roofed extension against the flank wall of this wing. The windows are a mix of 18th-century double-hung sash windows with small panes and 20th-century casements. A canted 18th-century bay window with double-hung sashes is located under the north jetty.

Inside the north crosswing, there are two bays with chamfered girts, a cambered central tie beam on knee brackets, and a crown post roof with longitudinal braces. On the upper floor, a narrow arch-headed door leads to a first-floor chamber or hall. This chamber has soffit tenoned floor joists and a potentially original rear lean-to. The lean-to is a large bay with traces of an old floor opening, likely for a former smoke hood. The 16th-century south crosswing has a moulded, arch-headed parlour door and moulded bridging joists on moulded impost blocks. This wing comprises three bays, and the rear chamber has a blocked arch-headed window overlooking the rear yard.

Attached to the rear of the main building is a range of outbuildings, some two-storey and some single-storey, with pantile and peg tile roofs. A single-storey 20th-century block with a gable peg tile roof is attached to the rear of the north wing.
