Description
The Three Cocks Hotel is a 17th-century building constructed from colourwashed rubble stone with stone slate roofs. It features a long northeast-southwest range of five bays, with a higher cross wing that is set forward at the northeast end, and a lean-to addition at the angle of the cross wing. There are various 20th-century extensions at the rear, along with a single-storey addition at the southwest end that extends up to the stream. The main entrance is a panelled door located in the third bay, raised over four steps, with secondary doors to the two southern bays. The windows include twelve-paned sashes on both ranges, two timber casement windows above the main door, and a large tripartite twelve-pane sash in the southern bays. The roof features two gabled dormers and a raised dormer window in the wing. There are three prominent stone stacks with diagonally set shafts located at the gable end of the wing and at the junction of the two ranges.
The main entrance is framed by an ovolo-quirk-ogee moulded oak doorcase. Inside, there is a main stone fireplace to the right of the door, which has been altered. A box stair located behind the stack features simple 17th-century newels with square knob terminals and straight splats. A blocked window at the rear of the main hall originally had ovolo moulded mullions, which were removed in 1974. A stair to the right leads to a raised lounge that was panelled in 1955 and may have originally served as an assembly room. The sitting room below has three chamfered cross beams and a gable stack with a chamfered firebeam featuring bullnosed stops. The cross beams in the main range have elongated ogee stops. The three-bay cross wing behind the main stack was originally timber framed on a stone ground floor, with jowled posts and a large central 'tree' post. The roof structure includes tie and collar trusses with raking struts and three tiers of purlins.
