Description
This is a former public house, dated 1737. It is constructed of coursed squared ironstone with a thatched roof and brick end stacks. The building has a two-unit plan. It is two storeys and an attic in height, with a single-window range to the front. A six-panel, part-glazed door is located to the left of the centre, set within a plastered and pedimented wooden surround. There is a casement window to the ground floor left, a similar two-light window to the right of the door, a cellar window to the far right, and a single two-light casement window to the first floor; all casements have stop-chamfered timber lintels. A datestone inscribed "1737" is visible in the right gable. The building features quoins and stone-coped gables with kneelers. Inside, the building has chamfered spine beams with run-out stops and an open fireplace with a chamfered bressumer. Formerly known as the Queens Head public house.
