Description

This is a timber-framed and plastered building, likely dating to the 16th and 17th centuries, although it was significantly altered in the 18th century. The roof is tiled. The building has two storeys and a symmetrical facade, with three double-hung sash windows with vertical glazing bars on the upper floor, two of these being tripartite. The ground floor has four double-hung sash windows with glazing bars and a doorway. The building was renovated at some point. It was formerly known as the Three Blackbirds Inn.
