Description
The George Inn is a public house that has its origins in the 16th century, with extensions from the 18th century and alterations made in the 20th century. The building features a timber frame covered in whitewashed render, with whitewashed brick on the plinth at the front and applied timbering above. It has a dentilled cornice on the parallel range and plain tiled roofs, with end stacks located to the left and rear, the rear stack dating from the 17th century. The east and west wings were built first, with a rear range added later to create a courtyard, completing a square plan. The inn is two storeys high and has six sash windows across the first floor, with outer casements beneath weatherboard gables. The ground floor has leaded wood mullioned and transomed casement windows. There is a central ribbed door and another ribbed door to the left, both set in a tiled rectangular porch recess. A flat roof addition is present at the right end.
Inside, the rear features exposed timber, including a short Crown-Post in the east wing. The timber on the ground floor has been heavily disguised and restored.
