Cadw's description

On the N side of the road through the village, approximately 250m SW of the parish church.

Originally the Seven Stars public house and shown on the 1840 Tithe map and 1889 Ordnance Survey, although the character of the building suggests a mid C19 date.

A 2½-storey 3-window house of whitened rubble-stone walls, slate roof on projecting boarded eaves, and stone end stacks. Openings are offset slightly to the R side, and have stone segmental heads with prominent keystones. The doorway is within a later boarded porch and has an early C20 door with glazed panel. Lower-storey windows are 16-pane hornless sashes. The upper storey has 12-pane hornless sash windows. The L gable end is pebble-dashed and has a replaced attic window to the L side. Set back from the front is a single-storey link to a detached weatherboarded range.

Listed for its special architectural interest as an early/mid C19 public house retaining original character and detail.
