Description
Blenheim Cottage is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with a 19th-century addition and renovations made around 1980. It is timber-framed and plastered, featuring a 19th-century clay bat. The roofs are thatched and red pantiled. The building is one storey and has an attic, forming an L-shape with a lower range on the right side, which may have originally been single storeyed. There is a two-storey wing to the right with a 20th-century outshut. The left gable end has a red brick stack, while there is a central stack at the junction of the L, which has a rectangular corniced base and two diagonal shafts. The windows are 20th-century casements with leaded lights in one dormer and two ground floor windows, along with two three-light casement windows in the wing. Inside, there are exposed floor frames and stop-chamfered main beams.
