Description
The Bryans is a late 17th-century cottage with later alterations and additions. It is constructed with a timber frame and brick nogging, featuring a raised tile roof and a tile ridge.

The cottage is a one-and-a-half-storey, three-cell building, with three dormer casements added. The ground floor has 2-light and 3-light timber casement windows.
