Description
Thatchers Restaurant, formerly known as The Kings Head Inn, is a 17th to 18th century timber-framed and plastered building. It likely consists of two phases of construction, with the older section located at the north-east end and a later addition at the south-west end, featuring some painted flint walling. The building has been renovated and is one storey high with attics. It includes casement windows with modern boarded shutters and modern boarded doors. The thatched roof has a ridge chimney stack and two dormers.
