Description

Robert's Rest is an 18th-century building constructed of coursed rubble with a slate roof. It features end gables and stone end stacks, one of which is located on an exposed chimney breast. The building is three storeys tall and has five windows, which are later sashes set in exposed frames. The central entrance has a square-headed door with an oblong fanlight above it, and is topped by a moulded cornice hood. The interior may also be of interest, although details are not provided.
