Description
The Merry Horn Public House is a house that has been converted into a public house. It dates from the early 18th century, with a mid-18th century extension on the left side. The building is constructed from coursed limestone rubble and features a gabled stone slate roof. There is an 18th-century brick stack on the right end, while the left range has a stone ridge stack. The structure originally had a 2-unit plan but has been extended to a 4-unit plan.
It is two stories high with an attic and has a two-window range on the right. This section has timber lintels above a central 20th-century door and 20th-century windows, along with gabled roof dormers. The mid-18th century two-storey bay on the left has flat stone arches over a 20th-century door and a late 19th-century two-light casement window above an early 19th-century eight-pane sash window. The early 19th-century range to the right is made of similar materials and also has a two-storey, two-window range.
Inside, the early 18th-century block features stop-chamfered beams and a partition beam on the ground floor, along with an early 18th-century butt-purlin roof. There is a 19th-century quarter-turn staircase to the left.
