Description
Broom Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the mid-17th century. It has an oak frame that is mostly recased in brick and features a grey slate roof. The building has one storey plus an attic and consists of one room, with a single-storey extension added to the left in the mid-19th century. The 17th-century part of the cottage includes a door with six fielded panels and a casement window with three four-pane lights on the lower storey. There is also a mid-19th-century gabled dormer that has a small-pane casement. The 19th-century wing features a boarded door set in a camber-arched opening and one four-pane casement window. Inside, the lower part of the left cruck and tie-beam are visible. The left corner of the cottage has a gatepost made from a moulded oak beam that was formerly part of the cottage.
