Description
The Digby Tap Inn is a stone rubble building dating from the mid 16th century to the 17th century, with later alterations. The south end has been demolished and rebuilt in brick. The front is cement-rendered and features early 19th century sash windows and a doorway with a moulded architrave, angle roundels, and a pediment. The entrance has a six-panelled door, with the upper four panels being moulded. At the south end of the front, there is a three-light stone-mullioned window with remnants of a hood mould. Inside, there is a moulded beam. The rear wings are lower; the west wing is made of stone rubble with a plain tile roof. From right to left, there is a three-light sash window above, a horizontally sliding sash window below, and to the left, a fixed window with small panes. The east rear wing is again lower and has a stone slate roof. At the right end, there are double ledged doors with voussoirs; to the left, there is a fixed two-light segmental headed window, followed by a ledged door and a three-pane wide fixed window. The building was marked as the parish workhouse on a plan from 1802.
