Former public house, 18th century, possibly with earlier core, with 19th and early-20th century modifications. Cob, rendered, on stone plinth, under a slate roof, hipped to street end, gabled-end to left-hand. Two storeys. 2 components: right-hand sections with axial and rear external lateral stack, 2 windows to each storey at front, with door to left; one small window to rear, none to gable end. Second unit, lower and brought out slightly, with only 2 upper-storey windows to front. Inn-sign pole, wrought-iron, lamps over street. The public house rooms, retain their late-19th century organisation of panelled partitions, and early-20th century bar, but the panelling itself looks earlier, with plain and fielded panels; glass partitions above.
