Description
The Village Lock-Up is a lock-up building dating from 1834, as indicated by the datestone. It is constructed of blue and pink brick in English Garden wall bond, with stone dressings and a slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan with two cells and is single-storey. At the center, there are paired boarded doors set under segmental arches made of gauged brick, which are divided by a pier featuring a stone impost block, with a single stone quoin on each outer jamb. Horizontal iron grilles cover each door, with the datestone positioned between them. The roof is hipped. This building is also known as the Black Hole.
