Description

The Bell Inn is a 17th-century inn with a 19th-century extension on the left side. There is also a 20th-century red brick extension at the rear, which is not considered of listing quality. The main body of the building is constructed from ashlar stone and features a projecting stone plinth. It has a stone slate roof with flat coping on the gable ends and dormers that have roll-cross saddles and open work finials. At both ends of the main body, there are tall, twin, diagonal gable end stacks, each adorned with diamond decoration in low relief on all four sides.

The 19th-century extension on the left is made of coursed squared dressed limestone and has a limestone slate roof. It features an ashlar gable end stack with a moulded top, string, and skirting, also decorated with diamond patterns. The main body of the inn is two storeys high with an attic, which is illuminated by two Cotswold dormers that contain two-light, flat chamfered, stone mullioned casements with glazing bars and stopped hoods above. There are single bull's-eye windows with rusticated surrounds above the main body, which has two windows. The windows are either two, three, or four-light stone mullioned casements, all with glazing bars. One two-light window on the lower right has an ovolo moulded mullion, and there is a continuous string course above the ground and first-floor windows. The central entrance features a 20th-century unpainted plank door with cover strips and a single light. The left extension has one three-light 19th-century window with a segmental head on the first floor and two-light windows on the ground floor, all with glazing bars.
