Description
The Old Greyhound is a two-storey building with an attic, constructed from coursed rubble stone and topped with a slate roof featuring a tile ridge and brick end stacks. The projecting gable on the left has segmental arched windows with painted stone voussoirs. The attic has a casement window with 2+2 panes, while the first floor features a 3+3+3 casement and a three-light transom at ground level. To the right of the gable is the front wall of the main house, where the first floor has a 6-pane casement and a 6+6 casement, and the ground floor includes a 6+6 casement and a boarded entrance door. A lean-to on the right has a similar 6+6 window.
Inside, there is an entry into a former cross passage, with mortices in the soffit of the ceiling beams indicating the position of a former post-and-panel partition. The hall to the left contains a fireplace stair with a Tudor arched doorway. The ceiling beams are deeply chamfered with hollow and fillet ('Wern-hir') stops. A bedroom on the first floor to the west has a fireplace with chamfered stone jambs and a wooden lintel. The habitable attic consists of four bays with high-quality roof carpentry, featuring collar trusses of broad scantling, vertical posts supporting principals, and two tiers of trenched purlins, which have been sawn through on one side to accommodate the front wing.
