Earlier vernacular building with double pile brick extension. Snug is most interesting room with bench seating of about three different types and lovely circular tables. Lovely location facing the Hickling canal wharf. An old low white-painted cottage inn on the right, with a red-brick Victorian extension on the left. The former multi-roomed interior is now substantially knocked-together, with two exceptions: (1) the oldest part has a pretty small front snug with beamed-style ceiling, old benches and a brick fireplace: the décor looks 1950s; (2) in the Victorian extension is a plain lounge with some features - benches and counter front - probably from the same 1950s refurbishment; but modern alterations to the servery. The remainder of the old building on the right has been opened-out and extended in modern decor, including using another small front room for pool.
