Tennysons Cottage

Tennysons Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 17th century, with alterations and additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of colourwashed brick and features a concrete tiled roof with brick coped tumbled gables and an axial ridge stack. The cottage has two storeys and a four-bay front. On the left side, there is a 20th-century flat-roofed porch, next to a tall glazing bar window. To the right, there is a rectangular 19th-century three-light bay window, a blocked doorway, and a 20th-century window along with a lean-to glazed porch. The first floor has four glazing bar sash windows set into the eaves. This cottage is the last remaining of three or four houses that the Tennyson family used as a seaside holiday home in the first half of the 19th century. It is believed that the poem "Ode to Memory" refers to this cottage.
