Description

The left hand section of the Spread Eagle Public House, located at 20 Northcourt Road, dates from the late 18th century and may have an earlier core. It features a tile roof and chequered brick construction, standing two storeys high. The front elevation has been refenestrated and includes one three-light wooden casement window and a segmental arched window on the ground floor, along with a segmental doorway that has a four-panel door. There is a brick band between the storeys and a renewed central chimney. This section has one two-light and one three-light casement window, as well as a flat arched modern door and two flat arched modern windows on the ground floor. At the rear, there are modern pentice additions and two tall brick chimneys. The building is part of a group that includes Nos. 14 to 20 (even) and the premises occupied by the Spread Eagle Public House.
