Description

Fisher's Cottage is a 15th-century hall house that is timber-framed and plastered, with some parts weatherboarded. It features a thatched hipped roof and stands two storeys tall in an H-plan layout, which includes two jettied crosswings. The building has a four-window range of 19th-century casements, and the crosswings are hipped at the front. An inserted first floor from the 16th century can be found in the hall, and there are red brick chimney stacks. The original frame of the house remains visible internally.
