Description
The Falcon Public House is a public house located on Main Street in Fotheringhay, dating from the early 19th century with some mid-20th century alterations. It is constructed of squared coursed limestone and features a concrete tiled roof. The building originally had an L-shaped plan and consists of two storeys. The main front has a two-window range of sash windows with glazing bars, set under gauged stone heads, and is adorned with ashlar dressings. The first-floor sashes include one unhorned window. A central six-panel door, accessed by a flight of steps, is framed by a moulded wood doorcase with cluster pilasters and an open pediment above. The building has ashlar quoins and ashlar stacks at both ends. To the right, there is a 20th-century flat-roofed porch. The rear wing, also to the right, resembles the main front and features casement windows along with a 19th-century wooden porch. There are also 20th-century extensions at the rear. The interior has been remodeled in the 20th century. The building is included for its group value.
