Description

Tudor Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations and additions from the 18th and 19th centuries. It features a timber frame with brick infill, and parts have been rebuilt and extended in brick. The building has a roughly L-shaped plan, originally consisting of a two-framed bay range that faces north-west and is aligned north-east/south-west. A mid-19th century extension wing was added to the north-east end of the range, aligned north-west/south-east, and a second 19th century extension wing projects north-east from the south-east end of the main range. The house is one storey with an attic. The left bay of the main range has two square panels at the eaves and straight braces, while the right bay features a brick storey band. The façade has a 1:2:1 bay arrangement, with mainly 19th century casement windows that have segmental heads, and gabled dormers on the main range and the left return of the right wing. There is a door to the left of the main range with a gabled porch, and large garage doors on the left return of the right wing. Inside, there are chamfered and stopped ceiling beams, a large open fireplace in the south-east bay of the main range, and an exposed queen strut roof truss.
