Description
This cottage, located approximately 10 meters west of Old Porch House, is likely from the mid-17th century and has undergone later additions and alterations. It features a timber frame set on a painted rubblestone plinth, with plaster and painted brick infill, and a plain tile roof. The building has a two-cell plan and is one storey high with a gable-lit attic. The framing consists of square panels, with three panels extending from the cill to the wall-plate, long straight tension braces, and V-struts from the collars to the gable ends. The ground floor has three 20th-century leaded casements, with two on the left and one on the right of a boarded door located to the left of center. There is a small late 19th-century lean-to on the right and a 20th-century lean-to against the left gable end, which abuts an external red brick stack. Additionally, there is a prominent 20th-century weatherboarded garage or storeroom at the rear, which is not of special architectural interest.
