Description
Neptune Hall Public House is a public house and attached former shop, built in the early 19th century and around 1882. It features red brick with granite-faced pilasters on the ground floor and stock brick above, both sections having large shop windows. The building has Welsh slate roofs and ridge stacks.
The layout includes a central servery in numbers 1 and 3, with two bars at the front and two behind. In number 5, there is an additional bar area. The exterior of numbers 1 and 3 is two storeys high, with a canted corner and a doorway. To the left, there is a 4-light sash window, and to the right, a large square window followed by a recessed entrance flanked by a curved, re-entrant window, another window, and an entrance. The windows and doorways are flanked by flat, granite-faced pilasters with moulded details, and there is a fascia band and cornice above. The brick first floor has four 4-light sash windows and a blocked window in the side wall. There are three prominent dormers with 4-light sash windows. Number 5 is three storeys tall, featuring a central doorway with flanking shop-front windows and corner end-brackets. The first floor has a 3-sided oriel window with sashes, a thin string course between the first and second floors, and a tripartite sash window on the second floor, topped by a plain parapet.
Inside, the public bar has extensive matchboard panelling and bare wooden fixed seating below the windows. There is a door and screen to the right with etched glass, and the bar counter features panels and fluted pilasters with scrolled tops. The ornate bar back includes mirrors and coving, decorated with gilded, tooled leatherwork. To the left, there is a small snug. The bar counter projects into a saloon at the rear, which has similar detailing to the public bar, with a narrow bar back rising to coving and a deep cornice above, along with fixed, upholstered seating. Neptune Hall is an increasingly rare example of a largely unaltered late 19th-century public house, retaining its original plan form and fittings in numbers 1-3.
