Description

The Ship Inn, located at 65 High Street in Sandgate, is a late 18th-century building with some alterations. It stands two storeys tall, with the adjacent buildings at 61 and 63 being stuccoed and featuring a modillion cornice, one window each, and one dormer each with sash windows. Number 61 has a brick false front added, which includes two sash windows, and has 19th-century shopfronts. The left side elevation has a sliding sash window. The Ship Inn itself has been altered and is a late 19th-century structure that rises three storeys, designed to resemble timber framing, with a gable that includes bargeboards, a finial, and pendants. It features a coved eaves cornice and a central projecting square bay. The Ship Inn is part of a group with Nos 23 to 39 (odd), the cottage behind No 39, and Nos 41 to 65 (odd), including 43A, 45A, 55A, and 61A. Additionally, Nos 31 to 37 are recognized as buildings of local interest.
