Description
The Blue Boar Inn is a public house located on Oulton Street in Lowestoft. The building features a late 18th-century rear range and an early 19th-century front block that faces the road. It is constructed of colourwashed brick and has pantile roofs. The rear wing is two storeys high, with the west side illuminated by a late 20th-century casement window on the ground floor and two first-floor 6/6 sash windows. The roof is gabled, and there is a truncated wall stack on the west side.
The front block consists of four bays, with a 20th-century glazed doorway on the right. To the left, there are two 6/6 sash windows and a blocked doorway at the extreme left of the elevation. The upper floor features four 6/6 sash windows. The gabled roof has a ridge stack positioned left of centre and an internal gable-end stack on the north side. The interior was only inspected on the ground floor, which revealed no features of interest.
