Description

The Inn House is a house dating from the late 17th century, with additions from the 18th and 19th centuries. It features Flemish bond brickwork, random-rubble stone, and brick-nogged timber-framing, which is rendered and painted. The house has a tiled roof and is designed in a 'T' plan with a four-window cross wing that is angled to the road and infilled. It stands two storeys tall.

On the road side, there is a brick plinth and ground floor. The ground floor includes a boarded door leading to the cellar, which has a cambered brick arch in the plinth on the right, and a boarded opening with a flat head next to it. To the left, there is a two-light casement window, while to the right, there are two three-light casements, all featuring iron opening lights and flat heads without lintels. Above this, there is a dentil string course.

On the first floor, there are two three-light casement windows, similar to those on the ground floor. The gable on the right is larger than the smaller one on the left, with the left slope extending down to near the top of the brickwork. The house has wide verges and plain bargeboards. A brick chimney rises from the eaves on the centre right return.

On the left return, steps lead up to a higher ground level against the side of the house, which has a random rubble wall. There is a boarded door that is accessed by one brick step, and a single-storey, gabled open porch above it. A small two-light casement window is located above the porch, with a weatherboard at the head. The exposed timber-framed gable features a tie beam, collar, and V struts, with wide verges and plain bargeboards. The right slope extends down to lower eaves. There is a brick chimney to the left of the ridge near the gable, and an older chimney set back on the left, which has a brick rib running up the centre of its upper part. Heavy ceiling joists are exposed in the rooms facing the road. The interior has not been inspected. The Inn House forms a group with the church and Church House opposite.
