Description
The New Inn is an inn dating from the early 17th century, with a later 17th-century wing. It features rendered and plastered rubble and cob walls, topped with a gable-ended thatch roof. There are three brick stacks, with the one on the rear wing having a projecting rendered rubble base. The original layout is not entirely clear but seems to consist of a two-room range that may have had a passage between the rooms, each heated by a gable end stack. A one-room wing was added behind the right-hand room, also heated by an end stack and likely built later in the 17th century.
The building is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical two-window front, with the left-hand side gabled and slightly recessed. It features early 20th-century casements with one, two, three, and four lights. To the left of centre, there is a 19th-century six-panel door. The main range extends to the rear of the left-hand end, which has a five-window front with 19th and early 20th-century small-paned casements.
Inside, the front left-hand room has a fireplace with chamfered granite jambs and a replacement lintel. There is a section of a chamfered plank and muntin screen at the rear. The room behind features a framed ceiling with intersecting deep chamfered beams that are unstopped. Its fireplace has rough granite jambs and a chamfered wooden lintel. Additionally, there is a chamfered plank and muntin screen with high hollow step stops above a wooden bench and a doorframe with a cranked head.
