Description
The Angel Public House is an inn built in 1704, with later 19th-century alterations. It is constructed of painted limestone rubble with ashlar quoins and features a tiled roof. The building has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance is a 20th-century door set over a double flight of steps, framed by a round-headed stone reveal with intersecting glazing bars in the fanlight above. On either side of the entrance are canted bay windows. The upper windows are 16-pane sashes, likely replacing earlier 9-pane windows, and are set within stone surrounds that include keystones, with the centre window above the door. A datestone on the building reads A.D. 1704. The roof is hipped on the left side, with a stack on the right gable, and there is a further stack in a gabled extension on the left elevation. The eaves are moulded timber.
