SP2804-2904 CARTERTON AND BLACK BOURTON BURFORD ROAD (West side) Black Bourton 10/157 The Old Inn 12/09/55 (Formerly listed as Cottage opposite and to the West of Mill Farm Cottage)
GV II Former inn, now house. Originally a C17 single range, with rear outshots added and front raised C18-early C19. Outshots altered to parallel rear range c.1950. Incorporates carved stone fragments, some from Bourton Place, former manor house of the Hungerford family, demolished c.1800. Coursed rubble limestone, 2-span roof of stone slates, rebuilt rubble stone chimneys to right and between right bays. 2 storeys, 3 bays. 3-light wooden casements with horizontal glazing bars, renewed C20, all with wooden lintels. Ground floor lintels are old, upper lintels renewed. Ground floor of right bay has 3-light window with hollow-chamfered stone mullions and Tudor hoodmould, possibly not original to house. C20 board door with C20 wooden lintel between right bays. Over door is a C18 carved stone tablet carved with military trophy, almost certainly from Bourton Place. Another small square tablet below eaves between left bays carries simple motifs from the Hungerford arms. Below eaves to centre is a tablet dated ITM 1655, which may be original to house, but if so was re-set when front raised. Interior has C17 stop-chamfered spine beam in left bay, winder stair in right bay on axis with stack, and altered trusses with cranked principals.
