Ivy Cottage And Barn Adjoining On East

Ivy Cottage and the adjoining barn to the east are a 17th century house and barn located on the south side of West End Road in Maxey. The cottage is built from coursed stone rubble and features a steeply pitched Collyweston stone roof with stone coping at the gable ends. It has an off-centre stone chimney stack and another chimney at the east end. The cottage is two storeys high and has a three-window range, with mainly 19th century casements. The west end gable displays a stone tablet inscribed with "IC 1655". The barn, likely built in the 18th century, is also constructed of coursed stone rubble and has a low pitched pantile roof with a gable end. It features triangular ventilation holes in the end wall and was undergoing alterations at the time of the survey in 1979.
