Public house. Early C19, altered later C19. Red brick in

eaves on paired brackets, arranged with shallow brick
pilasters at ends and between bays. To ground floor a pair of
double panelled doors with blocked overlight are set in a
pilastered timber surround with cornice, flat hood and
panelled ingoes?. Flanked by single tripartite sashes, that on
the left with glazing bars. Above are 3 glazing bars sashes.
To the left a slightly set back later C19 single bay, with
tripartite sash and glazing bar sash above. To the right-hand

have rusticated stucco flat arches with keystones, and

HISTORY: the inn was recorded as first licensed in 1765,
presumably an earlier building on this site, and would date
