Walnut Tree Cottage

Walnut Tree Cottage is an 18th-century house with mid-to-late 20th-century and early 21st-century additions, the latter being excluded from the list. The house is built of coursed blue lias rubble stone with brick dressings and has a plain, clay-tile gabled roof, with a brick end stack.

Originally planned with a single-depth, two-unit layout, it features an external chimney stack to the south end and a small projection to the right. The principal (west) elevation has a blocked central entrance, flanked by pairs of 20th-century four-light casement windows; those to the ground floor are set beneath segmental brick heads. The south elevation shows an external gable-end stack. A single-storey, gabled projection is situated to the right, featuring a small door to the timber-planked gable. The rear (east) elevation has a two-window range on each floor, also comprising pairs of four-light casements with segmental brick heads to the ground floor. One ground-floor window has been reduced in size to a single four-light casement.

Internally, an opening has been inserted through the original north wall of the 18th-century section at both ground and first floor levels to provide access to a mid-20th-century addition. The 18th-century living room has a brick fireplace and bread oven to the south end, with a chamfered ceiling beam featuring run-out stops. Two further chamfered ceiling beams are present; the one to the north end has mortice holes. The original central entrance has been blocked, and the partition wall and staircase removed. On the first floor, roof purlins are exposed.
