The King's Arms hotel, Stow

A classic, 17th Century Cotswold stone coaching inn, which was Grade II* listed https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101088796-the-kings-arms-hotel-with-camilla-stow-on-the-wold#.WaerT7J96M9 in 1960. The 4 bays to the left appear to be a separate construction to the 2-bay section to the right, although the dates are similar, and as with so many buildings of the era, there have been a number of extensions and alterations over the years. The construction date is not precisely known, and whilst it's described as 17th Century, it may actually date back in parts at least to the 1540s.
