There are 2 main ranges, the original public house (formerly 'The Commercial') which stands to the right of a slightly projecting range, formerly cottage (and possibly incorporating a pre-C19 fabric) and now an extension to the public house. Internal re-ordering has largely obliterated the original plan. Axial stack to former cottages; external lateral brick stack to rear of main range. 2 storeys. Exterior. Front: Main range (ie the original public house), 3-window range; first floor : 1 16-pane hornless sash window, and to the right, 2 tripartite 4:12:4 hornless sash windows. Ground floor : 2 doors, a tripartite sash window (as above) in between. The right-hand door (to the public bar) is cut into what was originally another tripartite sash window. 2 similar windows to right-hand end elevation, overlooking The Square. The lower range, formerly cottages, with three 16-pane hornless sash windows to first floor; ground floor with another similar sash window, a tripartite sash window (with door between) and a C20 2-light casement to the right.
