Description
The Horse and Farrier Public House is a public house built in 1928 for the Carlisle and District State Management Scheme, designed by Harry Redfern. It features painted stucco walls set on a flush brick plinth and has a hipped, steeply-pitched red tile roof with gabled half dormers and original brick chimney stacks on the slopes. The building is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a rear extension that forms an overall L-shape. The central entrance has an original folding door with an overlight and sidelights, situated within an open flat wooden porch. Flanking the entrance are full-height canted bay windows that extend up as dormers, featuring leaded casements with a central round-arched design. Above the entrance is a gabled dormer, and the returns of the building have swept eaves with additional gabled dormers. The interior has not been inspected.
