Description

The Harbour Inn is a public house located in Southwold, dating from around 1840, with 20th-century alterations and extensions. The building is constructed of rendered and whitewashed brick, topped with hipped pantile roofs and featuring brick stacks on the east range. It has a double pile plan consisting of two parallel ranges.

On the east front, the building is two storeys high with three windows. The central entrance features a panelled door set within a glazed porch. To the left of the porch is an 8/8 unhorned sash window, and to the right is a 20th-century two-light casement, both of which are set under segmental heads. The first floor has three 8/8 unhorned sash windows, and there is a dentilled eaves cornice.

The west front is also two storeys tall with two windows. It has single-storey square porches that project to the right and left of the elevation, with two 20th-century ground-floor casements. There is one 20th-century casement on the first floor, along with an 8/8 horned sash window. The interior has not been inspected.
