The Red Lion

The Red Lion is a house, now an inn, dating from the 15th and early 16th centuries, with significant alterations and a refurbishment in the early 19th century, including the addition of a wing at a right angle to the left of the front facade. The building is constructed of coursed and squared rubble, with a triple Roman tile roof and four brick stacks. Originally designed with a three-unit and cross-passage plan, it has been substantially altered since.

The two-storey, three-bay main front features casement windows with glazing bars, some of which are located on the ground floor and have concrete lintels. The two-storey wing, positioned at a right angle to the main roof ridge, has an inner face of two bays and matching casement windows. All windows are fitted with 20th-century wooden shutters. Two door openings contain plank doors, each sheltered by a gabled wooden hood supported by brackets.

The interior retains exposed ceiling beams and a chamfered cross-beam ceiling. A fireplace is present with a broad wooden bressumer, and dressed stone jambs.
