Description
The Fox Inn Public House is a 17th-century house that has been converted into a public house. It features a colourwashed exterior made of coursed and uncoursed limestone rubble, topped with a thatched roof. The building has a stone finished in brick rear lateral stack and additional brick stacks. It has a three-unit plan that was remodeled in the 20th century.
The structure is two storeys high with a four-window range. There is a 20th-century flat hood over a 20th-century door, and a 20th-century canted bay window to the right. The windows include mid to late 19th-century two- and three-light casements, as well as one three-light casement from the 18th or early 19th century located in the right first-floor bay. The roof is gabled, with right end and rear lateral stacks.
To the left of the front, there is a two-storey range under the same roof, constructed with similar materials, featuring brick infill at the front and 20th-century weatherboarding at the rear. The left side wall has four late 19th-century two-light casements. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
