Description
The Carpenters Arms is a public house dating to the 17th century, with alterations made in the early 19th century. The first floor retains a timber frame with brick infill, while the ground floor was rebuilt in the early 19th century using red and vitreous brick. The roof is thatched, with a half-hipped section to the left and a hipped section to the right, covering a single-story extension. A central brick chimney has been rebuilt.
The original building comprises two bays. The left bay features a three-light horizontal-sliding sash window to the ground floor. The right bay has paired wooden casements and a gabled, 20th-century porch projection to the right. A 20th-century door is centrally positioned.
An extension to the right incorporates paired casement windows similar to those of the original building. The road-facing gable has a two-light horizontal-sliding sash window to the first floor, a canted oriel window below, and an angled lean-to to the left, incorporating a door and barred window. A small, later wing to the rear creates a T-plan layout and has a timber frame with a tiled roof. The first floor of the older bays was likely once jettied.
Records suggest the building was recorded in the Royal Commission on Historical Monuments volume II, pages 265-6.
