Description

The Horse and Jockey public house is a building constructed from plastered and painted rubble stone, with the stone still visible on the gable end. It features a thatched roof, while the later rear wing is made of random rubble and has a Welsh slate roof. The structure is a long, one-and-a-half storey single depth range, except for the left-hand end, which has a Victorian wing that projects at the rear. The main range includes a three-cell house on the left and what was presumably a stable or brew-house on the right, now incorporated into the public house. There is also a 20th-century single-storey extension with a slate roof to the right.

The ground floor of the main range has four windows and two doors arranged as follows: window, door, window, door, window, window. The two left-hand windows are two-light small-paned casements with drip moulds, while the two right-hand windows are modern three-light casements. The doors are modern plank doors; the left-hand door is in the baffle position against the hall stack and is likely original, while the right-hand door is a modern addition. The far right window is located in the former outhouse. The upper floor has three small-paned casements with thatch eyebrowed over them, and the thatch appears to be combed wheat reed in the West Country style. There are three stacks: a single flue on the left gable for the parlour, a double flue between the first two bays for the hall/kitchen, and a double flue on the right gable, which is probably a later addition. The rear wing is two storeys high with brick stacks.

The interior of the ground floor has been entirely altered, with the rooms opened up into one bar space. Surviving evidence of the original layout is limited, and the beams and other features are of minor interest. The section to the right, once an outhouse, has a different floor level. The original layout likely consisted of a parlour, hall, unheated dairy, and outhouse from left to right. Only the ground floor of the main range was inspected during the resurvey in November 1996.
