Hole in the Wall Public House built around 16th century. Now part of the Brewers Fayre restaurant and hotel group. (1)
Building marked as the Hole in the Wall (PH) on 1900 OS map. Has been completely rendered. Windows are UPVC. Modern extention on the front of the building. Most of the building is covered by a slate roof covering, however a small part of it has pantile, which looks original. On the opposite end of the building to the pantile is unrendered stone. The shambling nature to the building and the mixture of building materials could stem from the fact that in the 1879 OS the site shows several buildings which were probably brought together to form one building. Much evidence would be required to prove that the building dates from the 16th century as there is no physical evidence other than the position of the chimneys which could indicate that the roof was once thatched.
