Description
The Britannia Public House is a 19th-century building that features a rendered and painted exterior, a slate roof, and red brick chimney stacks. It has an L-shaped plan, with the main section facing the street and a service wing at the rear. The building stands three storeys tall and has two windows on the front facade. The ground floor showcases horizontal banding in the render, a central door with a small hood supported by brackets, and wide windows on either side. The upper floors have plain rendered quoins and an eaves cornice. The first floor is fitted with 8 over 8 pane sash windows, while the second floor has 4 over 8 pane sash windows. The roof is plain with gable stacks.
On the right side, there are small later windows on the ground and first floors of the gable end, along with a door and two windows, plus two additional windows above in the rear wing. A small blind gable is present in the roof.
During an inspection in June 2017, it was noted that the building had been partially stripped during refurbishment works. The main exterior wall on the first floor facing Frogmore Street retains vertical posts and a wall plate from close stud timber framing, which has been altered by the addition of current window openings. The first and second floor structures in the left bay are likely from the late 18th century or early 19th century. Additionally, there is a re-used 17th-century door on the first floor landing, and the roof structure has been dated to 1807.
