Description
The Chequers Inn is an 18th-century public house with alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of grey brick with red brick dressings, featuring an old plain-tile roof that is hipped to the left and a brick ridge stack to the right of centre, along with an end stack to the right. The building has a two-storey, four-window front. A six-panel part-glazed door with a flat hood on brackets is located to the left of centre, and a six-panel door with a rectangular overlight is to the right of centre. A three-light wooden casement window, likely dating to the 19th century, is positioned in the original segmental-headed opening at the centre. A blind recessed segmental headed panel is to the left of this window, and a four-pane sash with an architrave surround is to the right. A flat brick band runs between the ground and first floors. The first floor has a four-pane sash with an architrave surround to the right, two four-pane sashes with segmental heads in the centre, and a blind recessed segmental headed panel to the left. A dentil course runs along the eaves. The left return side has a tripartite sash window on the ground floor and a four-pane sash window on the first floor. The building is included on the listing for its group value.
