Description
The Albion Public House is a public house dated 1820, located on Castle Street in Thetford. It is constructed of flint with gault brick dressings and features a roof made of black-glazed pantiles. The building has two storeys and is arranged in three bays. The central entrance consists of a six-panelled door set beneath a segmental arch, flanked by tripartite sash windows on either side, which have 6/6 and 2/2 glazing bars. These windows have segmental heads and are 20th-century replacements. On the first floor, there are three 6/6 sash windows under segmental arches, with the left window being a 20th-century replacement. The building has a dentil eaves cornice beneath a gabled roof and includes one gable-end stack on both the east and west sides. The property also occupies the former No. 95, which features a single window range and a subsidiary passage doorway. Inside, there are chamfered bridging beams.
