Description
The Queens Head Inn is an inn dating from the early to mid-19th century, with later additions from the late 19th century and some alterations in the 20th century. The building features a granite ashlar front and left side, with stone rubble on the left side and rear. It has a hipped roof covered in bitumenised slate, complete with ridge tiles and deep eaves that have a panelled soffit. There are stacks on the sides with brick shafts, and the right wing has a bitumenised slate roof with gable ends and a gable end stack on the right with a granite ashlar shaft.
The plan is a double depth layout, with an off-centre entrance to the left. There is a large principal room on the front right and a smaller room on the front left, along with shallow service rooms at the rear. A later 19th-century one-room wing is located to the right, heated by a stack at the right gable end, and there is a second one-room wing at the rear left, also heated from a gable end stack.
The exterior is two storeys high on a plinth, presenting a nearly symmetrical three-window front. The ground floor features an off-centre doorway to the left with a 20th-century door and granite voussoirs. To the right and left are 20th-century 16-pane sashes, also with voussoirs. The first floor has a central narrower 19th-century 16-pane sash, with 19th-century 16-pane sashes on either side, all featuring voussoirs. The right end is blind. The right wing is a lower two-storey structure, with a 20th-century two-light casement on both the ground and first floors, featuring a segmental brick arch at the ground floor and a timber lintel at the first floor. There is a single-storey 20th-century addition to the right with a half-glazed 20th-century door, and the left end is blind.
At the rear, there is a 19th-century 16-pane sash with voussoirs at both the first and ground floors to the right and centre. The two-storey rear wing to the left has a 20th-century window at the first floor to the left and a large single-storey 20th-century addition in stone rubble. To the left side of the wing, there is a single-storey lean-to with a 20th-century door and window. The interior has not been inspected.
