Description

The Golden Lion Inn, along with an attached former shop and Lion Cottage, is a 2-storey building constructed from coursed rubble stone with a slate roof and a stone stack on the right side cottage. The windows are primarily 9-pane horned sashes, set under stone lintels on the lower storey and at the eaves above. The Golden Lion occupies the left side of the building, which is downhill. The front features a mix of random rubble and larger quoins on the left side, with the upper storey painted white. It has central panelled doors with a 2-pane overlight above. The former shop, located to the right of centre, has double-panelled doors with a small-pane overlight, flanked by large small-pane windows, all beneath a blank fascia. The wall above the windows is rendered, except for a central sash window. Lion Cottage, on the right side, has an entrance on the left with a panelled door and a small-pane overlight, along with a sash window to the right. There is a similar window above the entrance on the upper storey. Not inspected.
