Black Lion Inn

The Black Lion Inn is a mid-16th century double fronted house located on Bridge Street. It features exposed post and panel timber-framing and steep red tile pitched roofs, rising to two and a half storeys. The north elevation facing Bridge Street has a jettied first floor and a jettied second floor with twin gables. The ground floor includes a central door flanked by modern mullion and transom windows in their original positions, along with one old mullioned two-light window. The first floor has two modern mullioned oriel windows and a band of five blocked original mullioned two-light windows. Notable details include a cable moulded bressummer and a carved angle post. The gables are adorned with mullioned two-light windows and pendants at the apexes and wall plates.

To the west, there is an early 17th-century extension that is two storeys high and one bay wide, featuring a jettied first floor with a 19th-century horizontal sash window. The east elevation facing Devoils Lane retains original mullion windows on both the ground and first floors. There is a plastered two-storey, one bay, jettied extension to the south, which includes ground and first floor 18th-century sash windows. Another early 17th-century extension to the south matches the west extension of the north elevation, also two storeys high, with a jettied, half-timbered first floor that has one old mullioned window and three modern casements. Inside, there is an exposed dragon beam on the ground floor, though much of the interior has been restored.
