Description

The Red Lion Public House is a public house built in the early to mid-19th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 20th century. The original three central bays are constructed from rubble stone with brick quoins, a first-floor band course, and bonded window surrounds, all of which are colourwashed. The building has a slate roof and a brick chimney on the right side. It is two storeys high with a cellar. The windows are paired casements featuring four-centred brick arches and top-lights; the lower windows have wooden glazing bars, while the upper windows are leaded. There is a cellar window on the right. The central gabled porch has cogged eaves and a blocked arch with a keyblock. To the right, there is a matching extension of one bay that includes a 20th-century oriel window on the ground floor, 20th-century metal French doors above, and a depressed arch over the door to the right. The 20th-century extensions to the left are made of textured and colourwashed render, featuring a hipped slate roof and matching windows. There are further extensions at the rear.
