Description
The Parish Room is a hall dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is constructed from slobbered rubble with stone dressings and has a slate roof. The building has two storeys and features four bays divided into two sections on the street front. The ground floor includes two windows with double chamfered mullions, one with five lights and the other with four lights, featuring a mix of leaded fixed lights and 20th-century casements, both with hoodmoulds. On the upper floor, there is a similar four-light window without a hoodmould, along with two 19th-century windows that have six-pane sashes, and additional right-hand windows in the extra bay, which also have sashes with glazing bars. A ridge stack is located at the right-hand gable end. Inside, the lintel of a former gable entrance is inscribed with "M 1612 I B," possibly referring to 1672.
