Description
The Milburn Arms is a hotel built in 1776, originally serving as a house for John Page, the Manor Bailiff. The building features herringbone-tooled sandstone and a pantile roof. It was originally designed with a three-cell, hearth-passage plan. An early 19th-century extension was added at a right angle to the left end, and a later 19th-century extension forms a cross wing to this early extension.
The front of the early 19th-century extension is two stories high with three windows, while the projecting cross wing on the left is two stories plus an attic, also with three windows. At the rear right, there is a three-story, four-window front from the 18th century. The cross wing has a door made of six beaded recessed panels beneath a long vertically tooled lintel. To the left of the door is a canted bay with large-pane sash windows, and the remaining windows in the cross wing are four-pane sashes with stone sills and lintels. The gable features crow-stepping, kneelers, and a finial.
The early 19th-century front has an original central entrance and a window above that are now blocked; the doorway is replaced by a 16-pane sash window. The other windows are 16-pane sashes with stone sills and vertically-tooled lintels, set in surrounds of tooled long-and-short quoins. The gables are coped with shaped kneelers, and there are chimney stacks at the end right and centre left.
On the gable wall to the right, there are 16-pane sashes on both floors. The 18th-century section has a 20th-century door to the centre left beneath a vertically tooled lintel with a keystone enriched with wavy mouldings. The lintel is inscribed "John Page 1776". The ground and first-floor windows to the left are three-light, small-pane casements in moulded surrounds with keystones featuring floral carvings and moulded stone sills. To the right of the door is a two-light, small-pane horizontal-sliding sash, and to the end right is a three-light, small-pane casement. The first-floor windows include two-light, small-pane casements above the door and to the right. There are small 20th-century four-pane windows in the attic within the original openings. The gable is coped with a rudimentary kneeler to the right, and there are stacks at the end and left of centre. The Milburn Arms was previously known as The Crown Inn in the 18th century.
