Description
The Red Lion Public House is a public house dating from the 17th century, with alterations and extensions made in the early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared marlstone, featuring wooden lintels and some ashlar dressings, with a concrete pantile roof and stone-and-brick stacks. The building has a five-bay plan and an added rear wing, standing two storeys plus an attic.
The front facade has four windows, with the three bays on the left displaying large leaded 18th-century casements. The ground floor of bay three features a contemporary five-light canted bay window. Bay five has a two-light casement above a three-light window, while bay four retains a four-light stone-mullioned window with a label at the first floor above the carriage entry. A chamfered plinth rises over three mullioned cellar windows in bay one, and the doorway between bays two and three retains an old ribbed door. The steep-pitched roof has stone-based stacks to the left of bays one, two, and four.
At the rear, there is a three-light wood-mullioned window above the entry, a six-light leaded casement, and a two-light ovolo-moulded wood-mullioned window incorporated into a wider window. The painted brick rear wing has additional leaded casements.
Inside, the pub features stop-chamfered spine beams, a large inglenook fireplace with a chamfered bressumer, and some early 18th-century joinery, including a corner cupboard. The inner faces of the 18th-century casements are moulded, and the front door likely led to a through passage.
