Description

The Jolly Sailor Inn is a house that has been converted into a public house, dating from the 16th or 17th century. It features a render finish on rubble walls and a dry slate roof adorned with five original crested clay ridge tiles. The taller roof over the later wing on the left includes a 17th-century ridge tile depicting a horse and rider. The building has rendered rubble stacks, with an external front lateral stack and an end stack on the right.

The plan consists of three rooms and a through-passage, with later additions for hall and parlour window bays. The inn is two storeys high and has a three-window range, with first-floor windows situated under raking dormers mostly above the eaves line. The 20th-century windows include two-light casements on the left and centre of the first floor, a wider three-light casement in the hall, and transomed casements on the left and right. There is a doorway immediately to the left of the lateral stack, featuring a door with an old slate hood, and a quadrant oven projection to the right of the stack. The rear of the building has a blocked passage doorway and three small window openings, showing some evidence of previous alterations.

To the left, there is a later three-storey wing with a two-window range that includes mid-19th-century four-pane hornless sash windows. Inside, the original chamfered oak ceiling joists extend to the window bays, and there is a hall fireplace positioned at an angle to the room, along with some reused ships' timbers for later support.
