Description
The Somerset Arms is an inn dating from the mid to late 18th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick and features a Welsh slate roof with coped verges and brick stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a five-window front. There are double half-glazed doors on the sides and a central canted bay with 12-pane sash windows, flanked by three-light cyma-mullioned casements. The two right-hand bays are a late 18th-century addition. A string course runs along the first floor, which contains three three-light and two two-light mullioned casements.
To the right, there is a former coach-house made of rubble stone, featuring three-light casements and a lower roofline with a half-hip to the right. At the rear, there are two gable wings on the right, one made of rubble stone and the other of English bond brick, both with two-light and three-light cyma-mullioned casements and a six-panelled door. There is also a lean-to extension on the left with a double Roman tiled roof. The interior has been altered but still retains chamfered beams and some 19th-century joinery.
