Description
The Horns Public House is a public house dating from the early 16th century, with flooring and heating added in the early 17th century, and later extended in the 19th century. It features a timber frame on a brick base, with weatherboarding that includes bead mouldings. The roof is tiled, using machine tiles on the rear. The building has a two-bay open hall with storied bays at each end, and it is now one storey with an attic, along with a 19th-century dairy added to the right side, which serves as the service end.
On the ground floor, there are two entrances to the right, one of which is a lobby entry leading to an inserted stack, with a small hood over the right door. To the left, there are two and three-light small pane slightly recessed casements. The building also features three gabled dormers with two-light small pane windows. An axial cruciform ridge stack, positioned to the right of centre, is made of 17th-century stretcher bond red brick with a rebuilt capping. The left gable has weatherboarding above a 20th-century brick lean-to, while the right gable has weatherboarding over a rough cast brick dairy that includes a canted bay window with a 16-pane sash at the front, and a weatherboarded right end with a cross casement. At the rear, there is a 19th-century stack and a low gabled 19th-century wing. Inside, the building features an exposed frame with large scantling, cambered tie beams, and stop-chamfered posts and cross axial bearers.
