Description
The Field Inn is an inn dating from around 1800, with additions from the 19th century. It is constructed of rubble stone, partly coursed, with dressed stone quoins and detailing, and has a slate roof. The roof has stone coping, small kneelers, and two ashlar gable end stacks. The building is two storeys high, with a single-storey wing and outshuts.
The main block has a symmetrical three-bay front. The central doorway has ashlar jambs and a shallow arched head, with a timber door consisting of three vertical panels and a flat stone hood supported by shaped stone brackets. To either side of the doorway are sash windows with 3x3 glazing panes, set in flush dressed stone frames with projecting stone sills and segmental relieving arches above. The first floor has three later 19th-century sash windows with side margin bars, also set in similar stone frames and sills. The corner of the left-hand ground floor is turned in an ashlar quadrant.
A single-storey wing is set back behind the left-hand gable wall, with a monopitch roof and a lean-to addition to its rear, both with pantile roofs, and are not of special interest. A two-storey wing is set back behind the right-hand gable, partly obscured by a 20th-century toilet block which is not of special interest. The wing connects to a terrace of three cottages that fronts the forecourt at a right angle. A single-storey lean-to is located at the rear of this wing and is not of special interest.
