Description
This is an 18th-century cottage, originally built as a pair of dwellings. The construction is timber-framed with brick infill, and the roof is thatched. The cottage has a two-room plan with a single storey and attic space. It has two ground-floor windows and two eyebrow dormers, all featuring 20th-century casement windows. A 20th-century gabled wooden porch covers the door on the left-hand side. The original door, formerly on the right-hand side, is now blocked. Chimneys are located at the rear of the property.
