Description

The Plough and Sail Inn is an early 19th-century building that stands two storeys high and features five windows. The exterior is finished in stucco, and it has a tiled roof. The inn has intact glazing bars and a canted porch supported by twin pilasters on each side, with a doorway located at the side and a dome above. A notable feature is the good inn-sign that depicts two types of sail: one from a ship and another from a windmill.
