Description

Ye Olde Inn is a house that has been converted into an inn, dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century. It was enlarged in the mid 19th century and underwent alterations in the late 19th century or early 20th century. The building features a rendered cob exterior with a thatched roof made of wheat straw, along with brick and rendered end stacks. There is a rendered addition, likely built over stone rubble, topped with a gable-ended Welsh-slate roof. At the rear, there is an outshut with a lean-to Welsh-slate roof.

The original layout consists of a two-room central-entrance plan with integral end stacks, facing south. The mid 19th-century addition on the right side includes a one-room plan, while the rear outshut and a circa 1900 bay window and porch were added later. Internal partitions from the circa 1700 section were removed, likely in the 20th century, but there may have been a central stair rising from an entrance lobby.

The inn is two storeys tall, with a one-storey outshut. The exterior has a roughly symmetrical two-window front. The first floor features 19th-century two-light wooden casements, while the ground floor has a three-light wooden casement on the right. To the left, there is a square bay window with a small-paned sash window and a hipped slate roof, which projects to the right to form a porch supported by a wooden bracket. The central entrance has a pair of glazed doors from around 1900. The right-hand addition has one mid 19th-century horned glazing bar sash window on each floor, with a 12-pane window on the first floor and a tripartite window on the ground floor. The right-hand gable end features a 6-paned horned sash window on each floor, both with stone cills. There are also end windows that may have been inserted around 1900, as indicated by the different glazing pattern and deeper cills.

Inside, the former right-hand ground-floor room of the circa 1700 section has a roll-moulded cross beam and ogee-moulded joists, along with a circa 1900 brick-arched fireplace. The former right-hand ground-floor room also has 20th-century ceiling joists.
