Description

The Late Kings Arms is a public house located on Market Street in Flookburgh, likely dating from the 18th century. The building is constructed of roughcast stone and features a slate roof. It has a central entrance plan and stands two storeys high with three bays. The segmental-headed windows are fitted with 20th-century casements. The entrance is accentuated by a bracketed canopy and a six-fielded-panel door, which includes two glazed panels, accessed by four steps. There is a cross-axial stack at each end of the building.
