Crown Cottage

Crown Cottage is a 16th-century timber-framed and plastered cottage featuring an original open hall plan. It has a late 17th-century or early 18th-century brick stack that replaced the original timber-framed chimney. The cottage has a two-unit plan and includes a single-storey extension, which may have served as a service wing, linking it to a 17th-century single-storey timber-framed extension on the west side. The roofs are thatched, with a central ridge stack that was rebuilt in the 20th century, along with a 20th-century stack to the west. The cottage has two dormer windows with casements and six ground floor casement windows with glazing bars, as well as a boarded door. Inside, there is a 17th-century inserted hall floor featuring stop-chamfered ceiling beams and carved wooden corbels, along with two restored inglenook hearths.
