Description
St Anthony's Cottage is a 17th-century cottage with 20th-century additions and alterations. It features a timber-framed structure with rendered infill and a tiled roof. The cottage has an external brick chimney with tiled offsets and a detached stack at the west gable end. It consists of two framed bays and one brick bay, and is a single storey with an attic that includes a continuous 20th-century dormer with three windows.
The framing includes three square panels from the sill to the wall-plate, short straight braces in the upper corners of the gable ends, and some long straight braces in the lower corners of the rear wall-frame. The west gable end reveals a queen strut truss with V-struts to the apex above the collar.
On the front elevation, there are 20th-century casements throughout, including a casement in the left bay and another in the outshut in the right bay. The continuous flat-roofed dormer features three casements, and there is a central part-glazed brick porch with a part-glazed 20th-century door. The attic lights are located in the gable ends, and there is also an inglenook light at the west gable end.
Inside, the roof has an intermediate queen strut truss and single, trenched purlins. Additionally, there is a large two-storey rear extension added in the 20th century.
