Description
Seven Stars Cottage is likely of 17th century origin and was remodeled around 1905, probably by Sir Guy Dawber. The building features a sham timber frame and roughcast over an earlier timber frame. It is two storeys high and has two casement windows that break above the eaves with gables. The ground floor includes a plain doorway with a rustic wooden gabled porch and a three-light wooden mullioned window on either side. The gabled ends have plain bargeboards, and the cottage has sprocket eaves and a central stack with diagonal shafts, all covered with tiles.
