Description
The Old Dog is a public house that has been converted into a house. It dates from the late 17th century, with possible origins in the 16th century, and features an extension from the early to mid-18th century. The building is constructed from coursed limestone rubble and has a gabled roof covered with 20th-century tiles, while the front of the right range has stone slates. It has an L-shaped plan with a two-storey structure and a four-window range. There is a timber lintel above a 20th-century door located to the right of the centre, and timber lintels over a 20th-century window set in a blocked door to the left, as well as 20th-century casements. The 18th-century two-storey rear wing, which was open-fronted before the mid-19th century, has a mid-19th-century brick end stack and a service bay with brick dressings at the rear.
Inside, the room to the left features a stop-chamfered beam and joists. The serving passage to the left, which had access through a blocked door to a now-demolished half-cellar in front of the house, contains two 19th-century serving doors with bottle glass and glazing in the upper halves, along with a late 17th-century ovolo-moulded jamb on the front left door. There is also an early 18th-century panelled door to the left and a late 17th-century queen-post truss with a late 18th-century plank door on the first floor.
