Description

Cree's Inn, located on Main Street in Abernethy, dates back to 1843 and features later additions. This two-storey, three-bay rectangular-plan inn is constructed from squared and snecked whinstone rubble, with painted quoins and coursed rubble on the sides and rear. It has an eaves course and a first-floor cill course.

The southeast elevation is symmetrical, featuring a modern projecting porch with a timber door beneath a date panel at the center, flanked by windows on either side, and regular fenestration on the first floor. The northwest elevation has its ground floor obscured by a harled, flat-roofed extension that is not included in this listing; however, it does have a stair window at the center and windows in the outer bays on the first floor. The northeast elevation includes a window to the outer right at ground level and a broad gablehead stack. The southwest elevation has an adjoining pitch-roofed outbuilding beneath a broad gablehead stack.

The inn features 12-pane glazing patterns in timber sash and case windows, except for the ground left to the southeast, which has plate glazing in the upper sash and a blocked lower sash. The roof is covered with modern concrete tiles, and it has coped ashlar stacks and ashlar coped skews.

The outbuilding is slightly lower, two-storey, and has a five-bay L-plan design, built on sloping ground to the southwest and northwest. It is made of rubble with sandstone quoins and has graded grey slates. The southeast elevation has a timber door in the bays to the right of center and to the outer right, with a low door to the left of center. The first floor features small, timber-lintelled windows at the center and in the bay to the right of center, along with a wide door for a hay loft opening to the outer left. The southwest elevation is blank. The northwest elevation has an advanced gable to the right with a timber-lintelled, part-glazed timber garage door at the center and a small window at the gablehead above a painted sign reading 'CREE'S INN'. There is a recessed face to the left with a modern lean-to garage extension in the re-entrant angle to the right and a further extension to the left, neither of which is included in this listing.

The boundary walls consist of semi-circular-coped rubble walls to the southeast.
