Description
The Ship Inn is a public house located at Blaxhall Ship Corner, dating from the early 18th century, with a remodel in the 20th century. It has an L-shaped plan and is timber framed, encased in colour-washed brick, with a plain tiled roof. The building is one storey with an attic and features scattered fenestration, including 20th-century casements with glazing bars and shutters. There are two dormers with barge boards, each containing four-light casements. The entrance has three doors that are panelled and half glazed, set beneath segmental brick arches. A red brick stack is present on the blank gable end facing the road. Inside, the building retains exposed timber framing with stop-chamfered beams.
