Description
The Market Inn is a public house located on Back Quay in Truro, built around 1900. The exterior features glazed tiles and polychrome terracotta, with a roof that is hidden behind a parapet. The building is two rooms deep and has a through-passage on the right side. It stands two storeys high with a nearly symmetrical two-window street front, topped by a stilted triangular pediment that has scrolled abutments and ball finials.
On the ground floor, there is a central tripartite horned sash window, with doorways on the left and right, each featuring panelled doors and a panelled tiled dado apron. Above this, a moulded entablature runs across. The first floor has four-pane horned sashes, with chamfered voussoirs and a projecting keyblock, as well as a moulded entablature above that includes the original name panel "MARKET INN" at the centre of the frieze, flanked by blind arcades.
The interior has been altered in the 20th century on the ground floor, but the public house facade remains complete and unaltered.
