Description
Church Cottage is a house that was formerly a pair of houses, dating from the 17th century. It features a timber frame with painted brick and partly painted imitation timber frame, topped with a tiled roof. At the rear, there is a brick gable eaves stack. The building has a plan of three framed bays.
The exterior is two stories high, with the street front (to the north) displaying square framing that is three panels high, including truss posts, studs with middle rails, straight braces, a girding beam, and a sill plate. There are four 19th or 20th-century casements on each floor and two plain doorways at the gable ends. The rear also has square framing that is three panels high, with similar structural elements as the front. It features two casements in the central bay at the first floor, a two-light casement at ground floor level to the left, and a single casement in the central bay at ground-floor level. The right side of the building is covered by a 20th-century single-storey brick extension. The interior has not been inspected.
