Daneway Inn

The Daneway Inn is an inn built in 1784, constructed from random rubble limestone that has been painted, with rebuilt brick chimneys and a stone slate roof. It is a two-storey building with a parallel range at the rear. The front features scattered casement windows and two doorways, each with a plank door, all topped with keyed rusticated stone lintels. The ground floor has timber casements, while the upper floor has leaded iron casements set in timber frames. At the south-west end, the lower two-storey section has a single timber casement on each floor, with a timber lintel over the ground floor doorway. The building has three chimneys mounted on the ridge and a lean-to added at the north-east end. The rear includes a parallel-roofed addition that was raised to two storeys in the 19th century, along with other lean-to structures featuring mixed casement windows. The interior has not been inspected. The inn was originally built for the Thames and Severn Canal as a lodging house for bricklayers working on the nearby Sapperton canal tunnel and was known as the Bricklayers' Arms from 1807.
