Description

The Corner House is a house, originally dating from the 17th century, with alterations from the 19th century. It is constructed of squared coursed limestone, partly rendered, with a Collyweston slate roof. Originally planned as a two-unit building, it now has a two-storey, two-window front, featuring 19th-century canted bay windows with sash casements. A 20th-century door is set beneath a reconstituted stone lintel. The left gable has an ashlar parapet and an ashlar end stack with a moulded cornice. A shared brick and stone stack is positioned on the right. A single 2-light stone mullion window is visible on the left gable, now painted black. A 19th-century lean-to extension has been added to the rear. The interior was noted to contain spine beams with run-out stops, but has not been inspected. The building was formerly used as the Cross Keys Public House and is included on the list for its group value. It was once marked as a Post Office on Ordnance Survey maps.
