Description
May Cottage is a 17th or 18th century whitewashed stone cottage located on the south side of Church Street in Northborough. It features a thatched roof that is hipped at the north-west end and continues down over a lean-to, with a gabled south-east end. The cottage is one storey with an attic and has a range of four windows, which are modern casements. There are two dormers at the eaves level and a modern door on the right side. An off-centre stone chimney stack has been heightened in brick.
Adjoining the south-east end of the cottage is an early to mid-19th century stable, which is constructed of whitewashed rubble and has a low-pitched pantile roof. The stable features double carriage doors.
