Description
The Nags Head Public House is a public house built in the mid to late 18th century, with 19th-century extensions. It features colourwashed Flemish bond brick and is slate-hung on the left-hand gable, with chamfered stone quoins. An early to mid-19th-century brick extension is located to the left, while a rear extension is made of coursed stone blocks. The building has hipped Welsh slate roofs with brick end and ridge stacks.
The main block is L-shaped and three stories high, presenting a symmetrical five-window front to Snuff Street. It has an 18th-century panelled door with a flat hood supported by carved brackets. The ground floor has 6/6-pane sash windows set in raised architraves, with cyma-moulded edges on the left. The first-floor windows have moulded architraves, and the central bay slightly projects with a semi-circular arched architrave featuring key and impost blocks. The second floor has centre-hung six-pane casements in plat surrounds, set on a moulded string course. The right return has similar fenestration, including arched first-floor windows and paired ground-floor windows. The rear also features three similar sashes.
To the left of the Snuff Street elevation is an early to mid-19th-century one-storey extension with 6/6-pane sashes. To the right of the New Park Street elevation is a two-storey, five-window range wing that was heightened and remodelled in brick in the mid-19th century, featuring horned and unhorned 8/8-pane sashes, two inserted double entries to the right, and a flat hood with carved brackets over a 19th-century door on the left.
Inside, there are 19th-century panelled doors, two mid to late 18th-century chimneypieces on the first floor with mid-19th-century cast-iron grates, and chamfered beams in the 18th-century range.
