Description

The Red Lion Inn is a public house, likely dating to the late 17th century, with subsequent alterations. It is constructed of heavily coursed limestone rubble, incorporating some ironstone, and has a fish scale tile roof with some plain-tile replacements. The roof features coped gables with kneelers, a moulded stone ridge, and end stacks. The main block has a lower wing projecting to the front, with a 19th-century single-storey addition to the left of a 20th-century rear wing. The central gable end has a 2-light mullioned window on the first floor. Below this, a 19th-century replacement mullioned window with a hood mould sits beside a 20th-century door leading up to 20th-century steps. The left-hand side of the main block is largely obscured by the 19th-century addition, which has a 2-light chamfered mullioned window and two 20th-century doors. A small-paned casement window with a wooden lintel wraps around the right-hand corner of the main block. Numerous other casement windows are present, mostly replacements, although some retain wooden lintels. The interior has been altered.
