St Johns Cottage And Wall To Front Garden

St John's Cottage is a detached house that likely originated in the 17th century, although most of its visible features date from the early 19th century. The building is constructed of irregular bond brown brick, with the east end and rear covered in pebbledash, topped by a grey slate roof that runs parallel to the front.

The cottage is two storeys high with an attic and features five windows. The front includes a small two-storey projection on the left side, which has a blank front and left side, a ground floor window with a 6-pane casement and a one-pane transom above, and a flush 12-pane sash window on the first floor to the right. The main façade displays a variety of flush windows with minimal sills and cambered brick heads, including an 8-pane sash, a 12-pane sash, a 4-pane casement, a 16-pane sash, and a part-glazed door set in a simple tripartite pedimented case. The ground floor also features a 16-pane sash and a 12-pane sash, along with a tripartite window with 4;12;4 panes. On the first floor, there are two 12-pane sashes and five casements in gabled half-dormers of varying light configurations. A chimney is located near the left end of the building, just before the ridge.

At each end of the cottage, there is a 12-pane sash window on the first floor. The rear of the building has a two-and-a-half-storey gabled projecting porch on the second bay from the east, with a one-storey outshut to the east and another that tapers to the main wall on the west. The rear features a 4-panel door with a flat hood and irregular window patterns, mostly consisting of small-pane casements. There is a chimney at the northeast corner and another flush chimney to the west of the porch. The design and structure of the porch and the lean of the walls suggest that there may be a timber frame concealed beneath the pebbledash. The interior has not been inspected.
