Description

The Woolpack Inn is a 16th-century building that originally served as a beacon-keeper's house and is now an inn. It features a timber-framed structure that is rendered, topped with a plain tile roof. The building has a hall that may have originally been open, consisting of two unequal bays, with a single-storey bay at each end. It stands two storeys tall on a rendered plinth and has a steeply pitched hipped roof. There is an off-centre brick ridge stack to the left and a slender projecting brick stack at the right end. The windows are irregularly placed and include two 2-light casements.

On the left side of the front elevation, there is a later 19th-century painted brick lean-to with a slate roof, which features a boarded door with a rectangular 3-light fanlight at its right end. Additional rendered lean-tos with slate roofs are present at the left end and the rear of the building. Inside, the inn showcases exposed beams and gun-stock-jowled posts, along with a common-rafter sans-purlin roof that has morticed collars, with a 20th-century roof structure added on top.
