Description
Plastered and painted rubble stone, except for the gable end where the stone is still visible, thatched roof. The later rear wing is random rubble with a Welsh slate roof. A long one-and-a half storey single depth range, except for the left hand end which has the Victorian wing projecting at the rear. The range has a three cell house at the left, and presumably either a stable or brew-house at the right, although this is now incorporated within the body of the public house, and there is a further C20 single storey extension with a slate roof to the right of this. The ground floor of the main range has four windows and two doors. W:D:W:D:W:W. The two left hand windows are two light small paned casements with dripmoulds, the two right hand ones are modern three light casements. The doors are modern plank, the left hand one in the baffle position against the hall stack and probably original, the right hand one a modern insertion. The far right window is in the former outhouse. The upper floor has three small paned casements with the thatch eyebrowed over them. The thatch appears to be combed wheat reed in the West Country style. Three stacks, single flue on the left gable for the parlour, double flue between first two bays for the Hall/Kitchen, and double flue on the right gable which is probably a later addition. Rear wing is two storeys with brick stacks.
The interior of the ground floor has been completely changed with the rooms all opened out into one bar space. The surviving evidence is scanty and the beams etc. all of minor interest. The section to the right, once an outhouse, has a different floor level. The original planning seems likely to have been Parlour, Hall, unheated Dairy, Outhouse, from left to right. Only the ground floor of the main range was inspected at the time of resurvey (November 1996).
