Description
The Nag's Head is a building dating from the 18th century, constructed of rubble with a slate roof and rubble gable chimney stacks, the left stack being thicker. The main facade is two storeys high with three bays, offset to the right. It features 12-pane horned sash windows, plus a smaller 4-pane horned sash window to the ground floor left. A six-panel door is centrally positioned, all under timber lintels.
Behind the main house is a narrow rear plot containing two small courtyards, both with extensive outbuildings. The lower courtyard, the one nearer to the house, is bounded on the north side by a two-storey, four-bay stable block of rubble construction with a slate roof and a rubble stack to the ridge. This block forms a mid-to-late 19th century rear wing to the house, incorporating a back kitchen. It has 20th-century glazing to the left, a boarded door and a small window to the ground floor right, with a matching window above, all under timber lintels. A boarded door is located on the rear elevation, formerly providing access to a ground-floor loft. To the south is a low, late 19th century rubble service range with a slate roof and four boarded doors, each with a timber lintel. A low cross-range comprises a late 19th century double pigsty of rubble construction with a slate roof. It has two low doorways to the east, both with timber lintels, with an intact boarded door to the right. This range returns to the north to form a W.C. The upper courtyard retains some stone cobbling. To the north is a late 19th century stable block, attached to the lower stable and taller in stature. It is rubble built with a slate roof and has a two-storey, four-bay front with two boarded doors centrally positioned. It also features a small window on each side, narrower to the right, and a 4-pane window to the first floor left, with a boarded door to the right, all under timber lintels. Paired boarded doors are on the rear elevation, formerly providing access to a ground-floor loft. A small, lofted early 20th century stable is located in the southeast corner of the courtyard, of rubble construction with red brick quoins. It has a divided boarded door with a 3-pane overlight, and a boarded door to the west gable, with a small window below, both with brick dressings and timber lintels.
The ground floor rooms of the main house retain rough beams. There is an inglenook fireplace in the room to the left, featuring a chamfered oak bressumer, and another inglenook in the rear former kitchen, also with an oak bressumer, and both incorporating bread ovens. Rough roof trusses are partly visible with pegged joints. The rear wing has sawn trusses with iron pegs. The lower stable has a three-bay stall with wooden partitions and feeding racks, possibly original. An intact two-seater toilet is located in the outside W.C.
