Chime Cottage and Adjoining Boundary Wall

Chime Cottage, originally an estate cottage and now a house, dates from the mid 18th century and underwent raising and alterations around 1800, with further remodeling around 1830 and refenestration in the mid 20th century. The building is constructed of coursed squared stone and brick, topped with a pantile roof. It features two elaborate gable stacks, with the left one being partly external and supported by a round arch and stone corbels. Both stacks have patterned brick bases and linked coped multiple flues in a Tudor Revival style.

The cottage is two storeys high and has a three-window range. The windows are late 20th century glazing bar casements with concrete lintels, including a central two-light window flanked by three-light windows. The central door, which is from the 20th century, is located beneath a pantiled canopy supported by turned wooden balusters on brick cheeks, with three-light windows on either side.

At the left corner of the building, there is an octagonal timber-framed turret on a bracket, featuring rendered nogging and a conical lead roof. The left gable includes an ashlar buttress. The adjoining boundary wall consists of a short brick section next to the house, followed by a gateway and a coursed rubble section, both topped with half-round stone coping, and extends approximately 60 meters in length.

This building is one of those constructed or altered between 1790 and 1820 by George de Ligne Gregory and was remodeled in a picturesque style between 1820 and 1840 by Gregory Gregory, who were successive Lords of the Manor of Harlaxton.
