Description
The Plough Public House is a cottage that has been converted into a public house. It dates back to the 17th century, with 19th-century elevations. The building is timber-framed, featuring a rough-cast ground floor and a weather-boarded first floor. It has a plain tiled valley roof, with a gable on the left side and a hip on the right. The structure is L-shaped, with a projecting wing on the right and a one-storey public house front on the left that borders the road. The building has two storeys, with one window on both floors beneath the hip roof and two windows on the first floor above the left-hand extension. All windows are casements, except for those in the one-storey extension on the left. There is a panelled door located under the gable, and a later 19th-century plough is mounted on the roof of the one-storey extension.
