Description
The Copper Kettle and Wimpey Bar is likely an early 19th-century building, with a gable end facing the road. It is a tall building constructed of colour-washed rubble, standing three storeys high with two windows. External granite steps lead to the first floor. The windows are a mix of 19th-century and mid-20th-century casements, with one small square bay window on the first floor. The roof is half-hipped and covered with slates. The building forms a group with Rose Lodge Studio, The Copper Kettle, Wimpey Bar, Mayfields, and a bookshop.
