Description
Old Bar Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with 20th-century alterations. It features a cruck frame that is encased in squared sandstone, topped with a pantile roof and brick stacks. The building is single storey with an attic and has a two-window front. The central entrance is a 20th-century board door, flanked by large-pane horizontal sliding sash windows with three lights, all of which have renewed timber lintels. There are raking dormers with three-light casements in the attic. The brick stacks are located at the ends, right and left of the centre, piercing the roof pitch at the rear. Inside, a pair of crucks is said to survive over the cross beam in the room to the right, although they are no longer visible. Old Bar Cottage was formerly part of The Fox and Hounds public house.
