Bacchus House

Bacchus House is an early 18th-century house, originally an inn, with a later 18th or early 19th-century cross wing added. The building was at one point divided into three properties. It is constructed of dressed stone, with the later wing in ashlar, and has a Welsh slate roof. The original building comprises three bays, with a two-storey, one-bay cross wing projecting to the left. The central bay of the original section contains a boarded door within a chamfered, segment-headed surround with a keystone. Above the door is a roughly three-foot-high rustic statue of Bacchus seated on a barrel. Renewed sash windows are set within the original narrow 18th-century openings. A linking bay of the later 18th century connects the original building to the cross wing, containing a boarded door with a fanlight and a six-pane sash window above. The projecting cross wing features a plinth, ground-floor sill and lintel bands, and a first-floor band. It has a stepped tripartite window in a raised surround on the ground floor and a Venetian window with radial glazing bars in a similar surround above. The original building has a steeply-pitched gable roof with end stacks, while the linking bay has a ridge stack. The cross wing has a hipped roof. The rear of the property includes a catslide roof over an outshut, a small projecting gabled wing to the left, and external stone stairs leading to an upper room in the cross wing. The interior of the building has not been inspected.
