Description
The Six Bells Public House is a public house built in three main sections. The first section, dating from around 1830, is two storeys high with two windows. The second section is a lower, two-storey range from the late 16th century, possibly with an earlier core. The third section is an early 20th-century range that is one storey high with two windows.
The first range features flushed flint rubble with gault brick dressings, a band at the first floor, and a dentiled eaves cornice. It has a hipped slated roof with an external chimney made of gault brick. The windows are sashes with cambered heads of gauged brick, flush frames, and small panes, including a tripartite sash at the ground level. The entrance door is panelled and flanked by pilasters with a cornice above.
The second range is timber-framed and plastered, with 20th-century pargetting in panels. It has a 19th-century slated roof with two internal chimneys made of red brick. The windows here include small-pane casements and a splayed sash-window bay, all from the 19th century. The right-hand range has a plaintiled roof.
Inside, the second range consists of two cells. The left cell has heavy 16th-century unchamfered floor joists and some exposed studding, indicating that the floor was inserted into an earlier building. The right cell has 17th-century on-edge floor joists, which also appear to be inserted.
