Inn, now house and holiday cottage. 1768 with late C19 alterations. Coursed limestone rubble, ashlar dressings, graduated stone slate roof. Quoins. Two storeys, five bays, symmetrical facade to left, the right hand two bays narrower. C20 door and plain overlight bay two in sawn stone surround, a stone plaque above with a round-headed recess and letters in relief: " 0 ", C20 door far right in chamfered quoined surround. To right of H E 1768 the main entrance, bay two, a blocked doorway has the letters "0" and "1754" crudely incised on the right jamb.
Fenestration: rectangular windows in plain stone surrounds throughout, with C20 casements to ground floor bays three and four, and four-pane sashes elsewhere. Window to bay four ground floor is smaller than those to first three bays and those to bays four and five are larger. End stacks.
Interior: the blocked front doorway has a fine built-in shelf unit of mid-late C18 type, with shaped shelves and shell hood.
The building was the Angler's Inn, established in 1760 (Speight p.470) and the landlord was John Inman. One Henry Ovington lived at the inn in 1797 when a meeting of landowners took place to discuss the enclosure of the land in the area (Baistrick p 54). In 1882 the licence was given up, the property then owned by Mr. Tennant of Chapel House (q.v.),and the nearby Tennant Arms was established.
