Description
The Lamb Inn is a public house that may date back to the 16th century and has undergone later alterations. It is constructed from limestone rubble with timber lintels and some brick dressings, topped with a thatched roof featuring brick stacks. The building has a five-unit plan and consists of one storey plus attics. The entrance door is flanked by two windows, one of which is a small bay, while the others are 18th and 19th century sash windows. There are three 2-light dormers above the main façade, a projecting lateral stack on the far left, and an embedded post on the far right. The roof is half-hipped to the right, with a central ridge stack and an additional stack in the roof slope to the right. Inside, the structure has been significantly altered but still retains a mutilated cruck-frame on the left and two cross-frames of a timber-framed structure on the right, with posts encased in the rubble walls. An opposed rear entrance suggests that there was once a through-passage.
