Description
Honeysuckle Cottage is an 18th-century cottage that includes gate piers and a wall built around 1800. The cottage is constructed of coursed rubble stone and features a thatched roof with brick stacks located at the left center ridge and right end. It has stone coped gables and is 1½ storeys high, with three 2-light eyebrow dormers above a central 20th-century porch that has a part-glazed door. To the left of the porch is a 3-light casement window, and to the right is a 20th-century canted bay window with a thatched roof. On the left end, there is a center opening 3-light casement. At the rear, there is a single-storey extension. Inside, the cottage features beams, an inglenook fireplace, and a stone flagged floor. The garden is separated from Main Street by a coursed rubble stone wall topped with stone coping, which includes four fine stone gate piers made of rusticated stone, each with a cornice and a ball on top. These gate piers were likely brought from another location.
