Description
TL 5562 SWAFFHAM BULBECK HIGH STREET (West Side) 16/137 No. 112
II
Cottage, mid C17. Clunch, coursed in parts, with a steeply pitched roof of buff pantiles, originally thatched. Ridge stack of gault brick with a string course. One storey and attics. Two dormers are partly rebuilt and enlarged as are the two windows and doorway at ground floor. In the rear wall, however, are two C20 windows in the original splayed openings. Inside the cottage has three rooms or bays. The centre bay is heated by an inglenook hearth of clunch and is divided from the service bay by a partly rebuilt framed partition wall. The parlour has a later hearth, probably C18. The C17 floor framing in both hall and parlour is now exposed. The main beams have C17 stop chamfers. The roof is of side purlin construction, the rafters are pegged at the apex and the principal rafters joined by collars.
