Description
The Green Dragon Public House is an inn located on the south side of High Street in Market Lavington. It features a later 19th-century front that likely encases a 17th-century structure. The building is constructed of Flemish brickwork and has a fishscale tiled roof. It stands two storeys tall with an attic and consists of six bays. The entrance is located in the fifth bay and includes a four-panelled door with a Tuscan stone portico, which is topped by a painted dragon. The ground floor has late 19th-century two and three-light windows with stone mullions and paned upper sashes, complete with stone lintels and sills. The first floor has similar windows, and there is a blocked arched window above the portico. A secondary entrance, featuring a half-glazed door, is found in the second bay. The building also has one gabled dormer, gable stacks, and a single flue stack in the third bay. At the rear, there is a wing that is partly tile hung, while the left bay is rendered and colorwashed. The interior has been altered; the main bar in the second bay has a ceiling spine beam and a deeply chamfered ceiling beam that extends to the bar in the rear wing. The upper floors have not been seen.
