Description

The Fox and Hounds Public House is a 17th-century timber-framed building featuring a central chimney stack and consists of two bays, with an 18th-century bay added to the left. It stands two storeys high and is finished with colourwashed render. The first floor and the right-hand bay on the ground floor have Norfolk sash windows. A pentice links the bay windows of the two left-hand bays. The left bay and the end stack are adorned with dentil eaves. There is a single-storey extension to the left and a rear block made of red brick with yellow brick dressings. The building has old tiled roofs, and the timber-framing is exposed at the rear with red brick infill.
