Description

A long two-storey terrace block situated on the south-east side of Main Street in Greyabbey, containing a public house with restaurant and a small antiques shop. The building has been substantially altered in recent years.

The main block features a gabled roof covered with man-made tiles and three Velux windows set into the centre-south-west side of the pub section. A large return to the rear has a gabled roof with Bangor blue slates. Two rendered chimney stacks stand at the south-west end of the pub, and plastic rainwater goods are fitted throughout. The front north-west elevation presents a stepped roofline, with the pub section to the right (south-west) rising higher than both the shop to the left and the central section. This elevation has undergone multiple recent alterations. Windows have been blocked in some locations and enlarged in others. A mock timber frame facade now dominates, comprising a series of multi-pane windows of varying sizes with patterned glass to many panes. Three doors occupy the ground floor, two of which feature gabled canopies on brackets; the left-hand door is double-width. Internally illuminated plastic pub signs appear at either end of the facade, with two more traditional-style signs positioned between them. The south-west gable carries the same mock timber frame rendering and displays several metal Guinness sign boards, corporate logos, and lettering spelling out the pub's name.

The building has been greatly extended with large flat-roofed restaurant sections and a small conservatory, alongside a two-storey gabled return. The small antiques shop at the left of the pub features a shop front with a multi-pane bowed window and an adjoining timber and glazed door. A timber sign board surmounts the shop front, with a small double sash window on the first floor to the left. The shop is finished in roughcast render, and its rear elevation is occupied by the pub's gabled return.

Historical records indicate that a terrace with a large return occupied this site by 1834 according to the Ordnance Survey map, though the extent of subsequent alterations means the present building bears little resemblance to its original form if it does indeed date from that period. Photographic evidence suggests the building has functioned as a public house since at least the 1920s. The car park and entrance to the Rosemount estate immediately south-west of this building occupy the former site of the road to Newtownards until approximately the 1820s.
