Description
Corner Cottage is a 17th-century building that was originally a pair of cottages. It is constructed from rubble and has a thatched roof, rising to one and a half storeys. The cottage features three casement eyebrow dormers. On the ground floor, there are three casement windows with timber lintels, and between these are two windows that were formed from the original doorways. The current entrance is located in a later wing at the front of the building. There is one central brick stack and one gable end brick stack.
