A small late C18/early C19 house which became the local beer house and remained a public house until 1962. It is of interest as part of the history of the locality and a well preserved house not directly associated with the paper industry, but part of the service industry to it.  

A small double fronted double depth house with rendered walls, presumably over the local rubble stone, and with a Welsh slate roof. The main elevation has a central panelled door with a hood on brackets. This is flanked by 6 over 6 sashes in elliptical heads, two more of the same on the first floor and 6-pane windows on the second floor hard under the eaves. Plain roof with a stack on the left hand gable, a second stack to rear range. The rear elevation has two 6 over 6 sashes, the gable walls are blind.  

Interior not available for inspection at resurvey. The ground floor is of open plan with a central staircase.  

Included as a well preserved late C18/early C19 public house in an area of historic rural industry.
