Although this pub is not a statutorily listed building, it is locally listed and the description is as follows: “C.1850. Three storey pub, tiled ground floor with pilasters and keystones, upper floors red brick with rusticated red/grey brick pilasters. Glazed tiling, ground floor and tiled inscribed cornice, Ionic pilasters.”

It is also recognised by CAMRA as having a pub interior of local historic interest and the description is as follows: “Three-storey Victorian pub of brick with the ground floor of brown glazed stone and with two bright yellow columns on the corner. The fascia has raised ceramic lettering in brown on a cream background ‘Ales’, ‘Charringtons’, ‘& Stout’ on the left side; ‘Thornhill Arms’ on the corner; and ‘Ales’, ‘Charringtons’, ‘& Stout’ on the right side. The interior retains an island bar counter of the late 19th-century with console brackets with what looks like newer panels added to the front, which is now painted in a gastro-blue-grey; thankfully the top has been spared the paint pot. All around the interior is a dado of Victorian dimpled reddish-brown tiling with rows of dark green and a narrow one of deep pink above. The island bar back is all modern being of planks of timber and distracts. Multiple doors indicate a partitioned interior originally.”
