History

Public house, perhaps built as a dwelling, but in long-use as an inn. Possibly originally a C16 hall-house of 3 units, with an open 2-bay hall and storeyed end-bays, extended to the SW in the C17 and subdivided to form 3 cottages. Successively heavily remodelled in association with its use as a public house, leaving only fragmentary traces of its original form.
