Description

This property comprises a former public house, now divided into three separate houses at 33A, 33B, and 33C in Southover. It likely dates from the 18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of local stone rubble, and has a Welsh slate roof with coped gables. The western extensions have plain gabled clay pantiled roofs. Brick chimney stacks are also present.

The building is two storeys with attic accommodation, originally comprising five bays, with single and two-bay single-storey extensions added later. It features a plinth and sash windows with 12 panes, with timber mouldings to the exposed sash boxes and timber lintels. The main entrance is in the fourth bay, with a boarded door set within a heavy frame, protected by an overhanging hood supported by brackets.

A later, part-glazed door has been added to the right of the fifth bay of 33B, sharing a matching hood with the six-panel door to 33C, located in the first single-storey extension. A 20-pane sash window sits alongside, and above it are two 12-pane sashes in pitched roofed dormers. Matching dormers are also present over bays 2 and 4 of the original block. The second extension includes a 12-pane sash window, set lower, and a four-pane window, alongside a pair of boarded garage doors at the extreme right.

The interior was not inspected. The building was formerly known as The Railway Tavern.
