Black Horse Ridge

Black Horse Ridge is a former inn that has been converted into a house. It dates back to the 17th century and was altered in the early 19th century by R.A. Prothero. The building is constructed from limestone rubble with dressed stone quoins, and features pebble dash and render in some areas. It has a corrugated tile roof and brick stacks. The structure has a rectangular plan with later extensions at right angles to the rear, and it stands two storeys high with an attic and cellar.

The facade has three windows. On the ground floor, from right to left, there is a 20th-century two-light stone-mullioned casement, a single-light 20th-century casement with a flat-chamfered surround, and a three-light canted bay window on the far left, which is lit by one 16-pane sash and two 12-pane sashes. This bay has a flat roof that extends to the right, forming a porch that shelters a plank doorway. Above the door is a rectangular stone tablet inscribed with "THE / COTTESWOLD NATURALISTS / FIELD CLUB / FIRST MET HERE / ON 7 JULY 1846." To the right of the porch is a blocked single-light window. The first floor features three late 19th to early 20th-century stone-mullioned casements, two of which have leaded panes, and a single central hipped two-light roof dormer.

On the left gable end, there are two single-light windows with flat-chamfered surrounds, and a timber lintel suggests there may have once been a gable entry. The building has gable-end stacks. It served as an inn until 1900, after which it was occupied and altered by R.A. Prothero. The interior has not been inspected, but it is reputed to contain a room with 17th-century panelling, according to D. Verey in "The Buildings of England: The Cotswolds," published in 1979.
