"Public house, probably originally a row of 3 houses. Late C18 with extensive C19 and C20 alterations. Painted stucco walls over brick. Graduated greenslate roof; with stucco end chimney stacks. 2-storey, 5 bays, with lower rear 3-bay extensions on returns, forming overall U-shape. 2 symmetrically-placed double plank doors and patterned overlights in plain reveals. Sash windows with glazing bars, that in centre is a canted oriel, all in plain reveals. Modern fascia and sign over ground floor windows. Projecting beam at right supports a carved wooden pheasant. Similar doors and windows in returns and extensions."
"INTERIOR: extensive C20 alterations. Asquith' Survey of 1853 does not show this as a pub, it appears on the 1865 OS map as the Silloth Railway Inn (that railway was opened on 28 August 1856). It was called The Pheasant for the first time in the 1873 directory. Became a State Managed pub in 1916 and sold out of state control in 1972. Removal of stucco in 1970s revealed blocked earlier windows."
