Description

The Inglenooks is a house that is partly used as a restaurant, dating from the early to mid 19th century, though it likely has earlier origins. The building features rendered walls and a shallow-pitched slate roof that is hipped on the left side and gabled at the right end. There is a rendered brick stack at the left-hand end. The layout consists of a two-room plan in the front range, with a larger room on the right now serving as a restaurant or shop, which includes a rear lateral fireplace. To the left of this room is an entrance hall or passage leading to another heated room beyond. There are 19th-century additions at the rear.

The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with four windows, featuring later 19th-century four and six-pane sash windows. To the left of centre, there is an early to mid 19th-century moulded doorcase that holds a 20th-century blockwood door with a rectangular fanlight above. To the right, there is a 20th-century double shopfront. Inside, the restaurant has an open fireplace with a wooden lintel.
