GV II

Public house. Early C16. Extended in C18 and C19, and altered at various dates. Timber frame, painted render, end-gabled tiled roof, a tall brick stack in front roof slope. The main block comprises early C16 timber-framed range of three structural bays indicated at first-floor level, additions at rear, and a long wing added in C19 at right-hand gable end. EXTERIOR: two storeys, with single-storey wing to right; on the front of the main block a continuous first-floor jetty with knee-bracket at each end; the ground floor possibly rebuilt and rendered, with a doorway to left with a two-light fixed window to each side, and to right a similar three-light fixed window; the jettied first floor rendered with timber-framing represented in black paint, and infill panels in white paint, and indicating three bays defined by storey posts, each bay with two intermediate posts, curved tension braces to the storey posts at the outer corners and straight tension braces to the intermediate bay posts: probably an approximation of any remaining original framing preserved under the render. In the centre of each bay a pair of casements with leaded lights; in the right-hand end-gable similar painted framing indicating close studs and a collar tie. On the front of the long, single storey, end-gabled wing to right a central doorway and, widely spaced to each side, a two-light, timber-framed, cross window with rectangular, leadlight casements. INTERIOR: on the ground floor C19 and C20 linings and fittings; first floor not inspected.
