Description

This is a late 18th-century public house, subsequently altered in the 20th and 21st centuries. It is constructed of stuccoed brick, with a slate-clad hipped roof and a rear range of fair-faced clamp brick. The building has a rectangular plan.

The front elevation is narrow, with two bays, while the side elevation is wider, with two bays and an attached rear range and former stable block. The ground floor of the front elevation features a central recessed double door with six fielded panels and a large fanlight. Flanking this are a pair of large plate-glass windows with low brick risers, plain pilasters, moulded blind clerestory panels, simple moulded console brackets supporting a dentilled cornice, and a modern cusped-ended fascia board. The first and second floors each have two, two-light horned sash windows with raised voussoirs, set on a continuous sill band. The side elevation has flush two-light horned sash windows, with two to the ground floor, a single sash with exposed boxes to the first and second floors on the left, and several blocked window positions to the right. Five moulded circular tie-plates are visible on the wall, one to the first floor and two each to the second and ground floor. The hipped Welsh slate roof is concealed to the front and side by a plain parapet with flat coping stones, merging with the adjacent property and sharing a chimney stack at the hip.

The two-storey rear range has a single sash window to each floor, a doorway to the right, and a gabled Welsh slate roof. The attached former stable block has an irregular five-bay north-east elevation, featuring a double timber garage door, three two-light sash windows with moulded brick sills and differing segmental brick lintels, and one sash with a flat timber lintel. The first floor has a square timber-framed ventilation window, a double taking-in door, a sash window with a flat lintel of terracotta blocks, and a blocked window space with a similar lintel. The gabled slate roof is finished with grey ridge tiles and modern plastic rainwater goods. It has a raised brick gable verge with plain coping stones and stone kneelers. A small single-storey lean-to, built with small bricks, adjoins the eastern gable. The rear elevation of the main range has a sash window to each floor, and a brick chimney stack rises against the south elevation of the former stable block.
