Description
Star House is a house that was formerly a public house, dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of limestone rubble with wooden lintels and features a concrete plain tile roof with brick end stacks. The building has a three-unit plan and stands two storeys high, plus attics. The long front has three windows, with a doorway located to the right of centre. There are three renewed two-light casements on each floor, and the ground-floor window in the left bay has likely been enlarged. The interior was not inspected. This building is included for its group value.
