The Red Lion Public House

The Red Lion Public House is a public house that was formerly a shop, with attached outbuildings. It features a 19th-century facade but is built on a structure from the 18th century or earlier. The front is made of white painted channelled stucco, while the rear is constructed from red brick, topped with plain tile roofs. The building has a central ridge stack on the front range and two mid-roof stacks at the rear.

The layout consists of two parallel ranges, with two bars located on the left that extend through both ranges, and an additional bar, which was the former shop, on the right. The exterior is two storeys high, set on a plinth, and has a hipped roof. The front is regularly arranged in three bays, featuring panelled doors at the centre and right end, both with chamfered jambs and cambered heads. There are recessed 6-pane glazing-bar sash windows, with two on the ground floor and three on the first floor. Attached single-storey outbuildings are located on both the left and right sides. The rear range has a half-hipped roof on the left and a hipped roof on the right.

Inside, the public house retains full-height match board panelling in the front left room, with dado match board panelling in the rear part. The bar counter features vertical rectangular panels, a white marble top, and four hand pumps housed in pewter. There is fixed bench seating under the window, and a timber and glazed full-height screen separates the front and back bars. A match board panelled corridor leads to the right-hand room, which has a glazing serving hatch in the door and fixed seating under the window. The Red Lion is now a rare example of a simple, unaltered rural public house with its original fittings still intact.
