Description

The Fox Inn is a public house that originally served as a house, dating from the 17th century with an early 18th-century brick front and an 18th-century extension to the east. The building features a timber frame that is roughcast, with a front made of red and blue brick, and a lighter red brick extension. It has steep old red tile roofs that extend down over the rear outshuts.

The structure is two storeys high with a two-cell internal chimney and a lobby entry plan. It is set back from the road and faces south, with a slightly lower two-storey wing set back at the eastern end. The older part of the building has two storeys on each floor and a central entrance. It includes recessed two-light casement windows, a plat-band, a low plinth, and segmental arches over the ground floor windows. The eastern extension has an irregular arrangement of two windows on each floor, featuring two- and three-light casement windows, with a door located near the middle. Inside, there is a side-purlin roof structure, axial beams, and open fireplaces.
