House, now inn. Circa 1600 with late C18 or early C19 alterations
and additions. Mid-to late C19 former brewery. Timber framed with
painted brick and plastered infill panels on brick plinth. Partly

to front. Plain tile roofs, 2-span to right. Framing: jettied
first-floor on 2 sides with moulded bressumer (refaced to front),
left-hand return front with 4 shaped brackets (one with carved trefoil
and 2 with fluting). Closely-spaced studs with middle rail (altered
on ground floor). L-plan; short main range to right with projecting
gabled cross wing to left of 3 framed bays; block in angle at rear
and former brewery attached to north-west. 2 storeys over basement
with 2-storey cross wing. Dentil brick eaves cornice to right.
Pair of brick end stacks to right and central brick ridge stack to
cross wing. 2-window front; C19 four-light wooden casements to right
(with segmental heads to ground and first floors) and C20 four-light
wooden casements to cross wing at left. Central pair of one-panelled
doors in angle of cross wing with rectangular side-margin overlight.
Right-hand gable end with evidence of raised eaves. Left-hand return
front: first-floor C20 three-light wooden casement to left. Ground-
floor C19 three-light wooden window to right and late C19 tripartite
sash to left. Pair of boarded doors between with narrow rectangular
overlight. Former brewery attached to north-west: red brick with
plain tile roof. 2 storeys and loft. Ground-floor chamfered corner

cill and lintel. Blocked segmental-arched carriageway to left, now
with 2 inserted C20 casements. Left-hand gable end with segmental-
headed loft window and first-floor boarded hoist door. Block in
angle at rear is probably a C19 remodelling of a former timber framed
range (see interior). Interior: left-hand ground-floor room with
ovolo-moulded ceiling beam and chamfered dragon beam. Right-hand
ground-floor room with pair of cased beams. Chamfered ceiling beams
elsewhere. Right-hand ground-floor rear room has Cl7 fireplace with
ogee-stopped chamfered wooden lintel. The framing appears to survive
behind the brick skin over the gable end (see end of moulded bressumer).
