Description
The Ship Old Inn, now a row of houses, was originally built in the early 18th century and re-roofed in the 19th century. Constructed from limestone rubble and dressings, with rendered sections, the building features stone rear chimneys and pantile hipped and gable roofs. It has a double-depth, L-shaped plan.
The building is two storeys high with an attic and basement, and presents a five-window frontage. A prominent, gabled, three-storey cross-wing projects from the front and rear, featuring a large segmental-headed lintel over a two-leaf, half-glazed door. Flanking this door are recessed niches, and above is a carved 17th-century panel depicting three figures and a cartouche. Segmental-headed windows contain 6/6-pane sashes. Two dormers to the right have tilting casements. A 20th-century gabled porch is located second from the right, with a 20th-century door. Cusped 19th-century bargeboards adorn the gables and dormers.
Attached to the left is a rendered 18th-century house with a central front door. Metal casements are on the left, and above the door is a window with an 8/8-pane sash under a cambered head. This section has a half-hipped roof. The interior of the building has not been inspected.
