Description

Holmes Cottage is a 17th-century house that was restored in the mid-20th century. It features a timber-framed structure with rendered infill, brick replacement walling, and a thatched roof that is hipped at the east end. The house consists of three framed bays and has a rebuilt external chimney with offsets and a detached stack located at the west gable end and rear east bay. It is a single storey with an attic that includes dormers.

The wall framing includes some replacement timber, with three panels extending from the sill to the wall-plate, short straight upper braces, and collar and tie-beam trusses, which are truncated at the east end. The west end truss has two struts supporting the collar.

On the front elevation facing south, the windows are 20th-century leaded casements. The ground floor features a pair of two-light windows in the west bay, a two-light window in the right bay, and an eyebrow dormer with a two-light casement in each bay. The central entrance includes a 20th-century thatched timber-framed porch and a stable door. There are also attic lights in the gable ends.

The interior has not been inspected, and there is a large 20th-century extension at the rear.
