Description
Belle Vue is a late 18th-century cottage, originally built as a pair. It has undergone alterations in the 19th century and later periods. The cottage is timber-framed with plastered walls and a half-hipped thatched roof. A central stack is made of painted brick. The building is one storey and has an attic. It features two painted brick gabled porches with boarded inner doors. There are two casement windows on the ground floor and two eyebrow casement windows. The interior includes open hearths, one of which has been sealed, alongside mantel beams and an exposed timber frame. Chamfered ceiling beams are also present. A Washingley Estate Map from 1753 is held at the Huntingdonshire Record Office.
