Description
Sandbank Cottage is a 17th-century cottage that has had additions in the 19th and 20th centuries. It features a timber frame with whitewashed brick and mud nogging, resting on a rubble stone plinth. The roof is made of blue and black glazed pantiles with a brick stack at the rear. The cottage is 1½ storeys high and has two bays of timber framing, consisting of six square panels measuring 6 x 2, with braces. On the left end, an upper cruck is partly visible, with a 2-light casement window above a lean-to. There is a single-storey extension extending from the right end, which includes an end stack, a door, and two 2-light windows. The extensions at the rear have altered the slope of the rear roof.
