Description
The Nag's Head is a public house dating from the 18th century. It is constructed of red and vitreous brick and features a first floor band course, a colour washed plinth, and moulded brick eaves. The building has an old tile roof and flanking brick chimneys. It is two storeys high and has two bays. The ground floor is characterized by canted bay windows with barred sashes, while the first floor contains small 6-pane sashes. The central entrance is a 6-panelled door, which is framed by a 19th-century wooden surround with pilasters that have incised lines and a small cornice hood supported by cut scroll brackets. Above the door, there is a blind window panel that displays a painted inn sign.
