The King'S Head Public House

The King's Head Public House is a building dating from 1864, with possible later alterations. It is constructed of yellow brick set in Flemish bond, with polished grey and pink granite and stucco, and features a roof that is obscured by a parapet. The building stands three storeys high and has a three-window range. The ground floor frontage, which may date from the 1890s, is divided into five bays by Ionic columns made of polished grey and pink granite, which support polished pink granite antae with incised decoration. There are three entrances with curved bay windows situated between them. The wooden front is panelled at dado level and features double panelled doors at the outer entrances, along with arcaded overlights above the entrances. A modillion cornice sits above the fascia, topped with iron cresting. The first-floor windows are flat-arched and have segmental pediments, with the middle window being tripartite. The second-floor windows are similar but feature triangular pediments, and there are chamfered quoins on the upper storeys. The parapet is adorned with a balustrade. Inside, the pub has deal boarding to the dado, two marble fireplaces, a late-19th century island bar-back with engraved and faceted glass, and a bar counter that is likely from the same period; the last two items may have been reset and possibly altered.
