Description

Formerly known as No 1, Abbey Place, this building dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of brown brick with a pitched pantile roof. It stands two storeys high and features two bays, each with sash windows that include glazing bars. The entrance door has six fielded panels set within a moulded frame, and is sheltered by a Tuscan porch supported by two columns and two pilasters, topped with a pediment. The building is now part of The George Inn.
