Description
No. 3 St Botolph Green is a cottage dating from the early to mid 17th century, with later alterations from the late 17th century and 19th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with freestone dressings and features a thatched roof, along with a red brick ridge stack and a gable end stack on the right side. The building is one storey with an attic and has a modified three-unit lobby entry plan, plus a single storey range extending to the north-east. The gables have parapets with chamfered copings, and there is a chamfer on the south-east quoin. The wall of the internal stack projects from the south-west elevation.
The cottage has three ground floor casement windows, consisting of two and three lights, each with wooden lintels. There are also two gabled dormer windows with casements. At the rear, there is a wide entrance featuring a stop-chamfered wooden lintel and a boarded door. Inside, the property has stop-chamfered axial and cross beams, and the north-west room contains a sealed hearth along with 19th-century cupboards and a staircase with splat balusters dating from the late 17th or early 18th century.
