Description
The Queen's Larder Public House is a terraced house that dates back to the early 18th century and was altered in the early 19th century. It is constructed from multi-coloured stock brick and has four storeys along with basements. The façade features three windows, with a four-window return that has two blind windows facing Cosmo Place. The entrance includes a wooden architraved doorcase supported by shaped brackets and topped with an entablature that has a pulvinated frieze. The windows are fitted with recessed sashes and have gauged, reddened brick flat arches above them. The return elevation showcases a later 19th-century public house frontage on the ground floor, which is adorned with pilasters that support an entablature with a dentil cornice, flanked by consoles. Inside, the pub retains 20th-century matchboarding up to the height of the frieze and a 19th-century ribbed ceiling.
