Description
The Bunch of Grapes Inn is a farmhouse and inn dating from the mid-18th century, with a right wing added around 1800 and a mid to late 20th-century outhouse. It is constructed of dressed sandstone and features clay pantile roofs with stone ridge copings, block kneelers, and gable copings on the wing. The building has two storeys, with the wing being slightly taller, and there are two windows in each section. The wing includes a renewed boarded door to the left of a window, and renewed sash windows throughout. Iron cross-shaped restraining plates are positioned at ceiling heights between the windows of the older part. Above the doorway, there is a painted sign board, and a bunch-of-grapes sign hangs on an ornamental bracket at the first floor to the left.
Adjoining the right return of the wing is a single-storey outhouse that is recessed and matches the style of the main building, featuring a garret light. The interior retains beamed ceilings, an inglenook fireplace with a heck partition and bressumer, and an altered and painted mid to late 18th-century stone fireplace with a flat surround and moulded corbels, flanked by a salt box and a spice cupboard with a panelled door. The mid-20th-century wing on the left side of the inn and the mid to late 20th-century rear extensions are not of special interest.
