Description
No. 2 Plymouth Road, formerly known as The White Hart public house, is a building from around the 1840s, possibly a reconstruction of an earlier structure. It features roughcast mass wall construction and a slate roof with gabled ends. The building has rear left lateral and right end stacks with stone rubble shafts.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical three-window front that has regular fenestration. The front door, located to the left of center, is a six-panel door with fielded and moulded upper panels, topped with an overlight. It is framed by a pilastered doorcase with a cornice on consoles and panelled reveals. The ground floor has four late 19th or early 20th-century four-pane horned sash windows, which may be set in earlier embrasures. Above the front door, there is a blind recess. The first floor features a 20-pane late 18th or early 19th-century sash window with old glass to the left, along with one 12-pane and one 16-pane hornless sash window to the left of center.
The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the survey. Locally, it is noted that the building is said to have been constructed on the site of a former mill.
