Description
3 The Old Inn consists of two houses that are joined to form a rough L-shape facing a yard. The buildings are made of rubble sandstone painted white and have stone-tile roofs. The upper house, which includes a rebuilt end, is located on the north side next to the main road, while the lower house is positioned at an oblique angle to the southeast.
The lower house, known as No 3, features a central stack that was rebuilt in the 19th century and an end stack to the right. Its front, facing the yard, has two windows with hoodmoulds and chamfered lintels, and it has recently had casements inserted, with the lower right window widened. The south gable end has two 2-light windows with hoodmoulds in the upper storey, along with a blocked attic window that is offset to the left. There is also a dripstone above a former doorway on the lower left. The rear of the lower house retains the hoodmould of a blocked stair light and has a 2-light casement to its left.
Inside the lower house, the cross passage is still visible, with doorways leading to the hall on the south side and stairs on the north side. Both doorways have Tudor heads, stop-chamfer surrounds, and boarded doors fitted with wrought-iron strap hinges. The hall and parlour feature cross beams with stepped stops, although the original screen has been removed. The hall includes a fireplace with a chamfered wooden lintel and stone baffle walls. In the south wall of the parlour, there is a chamfered lintel from a former doorway. The staircase has wooden treads but is said to have stone beneath it.
