Description

Kerry Thatch is a 17th or 18th century cottage located in Bromham. It features a plastered timber frame and a thatched roof. The cottage likely started as a two or three room dwelling with a central back-to-back hearth and was extended in the 18th or 19th century by adding one room at each end, along with gable end stacks. The building has one storey and attics, with two dormers, each containing 2-light casements with diamond leaded lights. The ground floor has four similar 3-light casements.
