Green End House

Green End House is a cottage, dating from the late 17th century, with a crosswing added in the early 18th century. The original timber-frame is partly exposed, with other sections plastered and rendered, and the rear is cased in 19th-century brick. The roof is covered in triple roll pantiles, replacing an earlier thatch, and features a rebuilt ridge stack, a side stack, and an end stack to the crosswing. The original 17th-century part consists of a single range of three bays. The front has two doorways, one in a lean-to porch opposite a stack, and two dormers with swept roofs and modern casement windows. An early 18th-century extension added bays to the east and west, incorporating the north bay of the original cottage. The frame of the extension is timber-framed with upward bracing and carries a triple roll tile roof. The interior of the 17th-century section features abutted inglenook hearths, and red brick. The incorporation of the original cottage’s north bay into the 18th-century extension is visible in the roof, where the original wall plate with sites for rafters remains.
