Description
The Village Pound and Bier House is a structure that includes a pound, likely dating from the 18th century, and a bier house, which probably dates from the late 19th century. It is constructed from ham stone rubble, and the bier house features a roof made of Welsh slate with a bargeboarded east gable. The pound is defined by a random stone wall that averages about one meter in height, and there is no clear gate position unless it was located where the bier house stands. The bier house is a single-storey building with a simple boarded door in the east gable, and the entire site is now overgrown. This site and the house were presented to the village by Earl Poulett in 1933.
