Spout House is a 16th century cruck framed farmhouse, named after a nearby spring.

It became an ale house known as the Sun Inn in 1714

The new pub opposite the house was built in 1914 and the original Sun Inn closed.
Remarkably the old house was then left undisturbed with its original furniture until 1979 when it was taken over and re-opened by the National Park Authority.

An upper bedroom gives a view of the A-shaped cruck frame.
