Description
The Cooper’s House is a Grade II listed estate cottage built in 1850 for cooper George Eyres. It is designed in a Tudor style and features a stone barrel with the initials G. E. displayed in a panel on the front. The building is constructed from coursed stone with freestone dressings and has a steeply pitched gabled roof made of Collyweston stone.
The cottage is two storeys high and has a two-window range. On the right side, there is a gabled section with a two-storey canted bay that has a corbelled gable, displaying the Duke of Bedford's arms, and includes a stone mullion window with a transom and four-centred arch side lights. The left side features a stone porch with a four-centred arch, which has the date 1850 inscribed in the spandrel, and a ledged door with wrought iron hinges, topped with a gable.
Adjacent to the cottage on the left (south) is a single-storey cooper's workshop. This workshop has a three-light stone mullion window, which appears to be older, with a hood above it, and a ledged door to the right. The building has end stacks with ramped and gabled caps and red brick diagonal shafts. All windows throughout the property have multi-pane metal frames.
