Prince Regent House

Prince Regent House is a house dating from the mid to late 18th century. It is constructed of painted rubble, with some cob at the rear, and features dressed stone sills, keyed arches, and a first-floor sill string. The roof is covered with asbestos slate and is hipped on the right side; originally, it was also hipped on the left but has since been altered due to the construction of a later house. There are two painted brick chimneys on each side wall and cast iron ogee gutters.

The house has a double depth plan with two equal reception rooms on either side of a central passage that leads to a central stair, situated between the rear service rooms. There is a single-storey 19th-century extension with a hipped scantle roof on the right side and a 20th-century extension at the rear left. The building stands two storeys high with an attic and has a symmetrical three-window front facing the west road.

The central entrance features a round-headed doorway with a late 19th-century panelled door and an integral fanlight. The round-headed sash window above the door is complemented by other front window openings that are wide, with shallow keyed arches and bracket-moulded projecting keystones. The original 18th-century hornless tripartite sashes have 16-pane central lights and 4-pane sidelights, with thick glazing bars and internally ovolo-moulded details. The centre light of the first-floor left-hand window has been replaced with a 12-pane horned sash. Two 16-pane 2-light casements from the 18th century remain on the first floor at the rear, while the stair window is blocked and features crown glass.

Inside, the house retains much of its 18th-century carpentry and joinery, including a dog-leg stair, 4-panel and 2-panel doors (some with original latches), and ovolo-moulded beams in the right-hand rear service room. The original pine roof has lapped pegged collars and apices, and slate flags are present in the passage. According to the current occupant, the house was first recorded as a coaching inn in 1704. It is an almost complete 18th-century house, remarkably retaining most of its original windows.
