Description
68 Marshfield Road is part of an inn that has been converted into a house. It dates from the mid to late 17th century and is constructed of rendered limestone rubble with freestone rusticated quoins and architraves. The building features a double-Roman tile gambrel roof with a brick stack on the left gable end. It has a two-unit plan, likely with a hall and kitchen to the left of the passage, and a rear wing that is now No. 70.
The exterior is two storeys high with an attic and has a two-window range. There is a 3/3-pane sash window in a small central raking dormer. The first floor has two-light windows with cyma-moulded mullions and surrounds, which are stopped at the corners, and these contain 19th-century plate-glass sashes. On the ground floor, there is a 20th-century door with a 19th-century four-pane overlight to the right, and two 20th-century windows to the left. The left return features a blocked stone architrave high in the gable end.
The building is noted on a map from 1784 as part of the Horse and Jockey Inn.
