King Alfred Public House

The King Alfred Public House is a public house that underwent refronting in 1806, originally an earlier inn. The roof may have been altered in the early 20th century. It features a roughcast exterior and a double Roman tiled roof with a slight bell cast. The building, which was possibly originally gable fronted, now has a hipped roof with a small section of parapet on the right return and a brick stack rising from the eaves on the left return, along with another brick stack at the rear of the left gable end.

The structure is L-shaped with a rear extension and consists of two storeys and three bays. It has 16-pane sash windows and a semi-circular headed window above a semi-circular headed entrance, which includes a fanlight with radiating glazing bars and a panelled door. The right return has three bays with a lower independently roofed extension beyond. The interior has been significantly altered.

Historically, it was recorded in 1710 as the Anchor and later known as the Bell. The name changed to King Alfred around 1806 when a new road from Lyng to Burrow Bridge was constructed, which required the demolition of the front of the inn.
