Description
Fullway Cottage, formerly known as Fulway Cottage, is a cottage dating from the early 16th century. It was later used as a cow shelter and is now disused. The building is timber-framed with red brick nogging and has been partly rebuilt in cement-rendered red brick, with a corrugated asbestos roof. It has two framed bays aligned north-west/south-east and is one storey with a gable-lit attic. Integral brick end stacks are present.
The timber framing features close studding with square panels extending from the sole-plate to the wall-plate. The south-west front has a small casement window to the left and a pair of boarded doors in the centre. Sections of the frame were removed when the building served as a cow shelter. Small casement windows are located in each gable end. A sandstone and brick bread oven with a plain tile roof projects from the right-hand gable. Two small windows are visible at the rear.
Inside, the cottage has collar and cambered tie-beam roof trusses with queen struts, along with chamfered beams with ogee stops, large joists in the south-east bay, and chamfered wall plates. A timber-framed cross wall is present. A large open fireplace in the south-eastern bay features a chamfered lintel with ogee stops. Other interior features include a bread oven, remnants of a 19th-century kitchen range, and a washing copper. There are likely 17th-century newel staircases located behind each stack, with boarded doors at the foot of each. The cottage was divided, probably in the 19th century, and subsequently used as an open-fronted field shelter for animals.
