Basket Weavers Cottage

Basket Weavers Cottage is a former store or farm building, likely built in the 18th century and extended in the late 19th century. It features a timber-framed structure with some re-used timbers, red brick nogging, and a tall brick plinth. The roof is covered with clay plain tiles and has gabled ends, with a brick stack at the gable end.

The building has a single-cell plan that is open to the roof, with a floor inserted at the right end and a later-built stack at the left end. There are late 19th-century outshuts at the rear and left end. The exterior is one storey high, with a box-frame design that is five panels wide and two panels tall on the tall brick plinth. There is a tension brace to the right of the central doorway, with a plank door and 4 and 6-pane windows on either side. The right-hand return gable end has three by two panels with large tension braces to the jowled corner-posts, and there are brick outshuts at the left end and rear.

Inside, the building is half floored, with the floor supported on a rough cross-beam and poles. It features one tie-beam truss with raking struts, and the principals are morticed at the apex. There are staggered trenched purlins and common rafters with a ridge-board. The ground floor is made of brick, and there is a small brick fireplace at the left end. Notably, from the 1880s, the building was used as a basket-making workshop.
