II

Former Burgage house, an inn for over 200 years. Early-mid C19 front in C18 style masking C17 remodelling of mediaeval building. Freestone with Cotswold stone roof. Coach-way between two wings, south wing appears to have been the storeyed wing off the hall (the rear wing). Two chimneys, ashlar with moulded capping to right of centre, brick to right. Two storeys; band over ground floor, oversailing eaves courses. Three windows on first floor, paired glazing-bar sashes; two outer angled bays on stone bases to ground floor and central segmental head entry. Two irregular two-storey extensions to rear, the south side one heavily beamed with reused presumably mediaeval timbers (thought to be site of earlier hall - if so an unusual plan). Inside the coachway is a beam with evidence of stud partition to left, into it the spine beam from the south room is tenoned plain ogee stop chamfer, cobbled coachway.
