Description
Jeremiahs Cottage is a house that dates from the 16th century or early 17th century, with alterations and extensions from the late 18th century or early 19th century. The building is timber-framed and plastered, with a tarred flint and brick plinth. It features both pantiled and thatched roofs, a red brick ridge stack at the rear, and a gault brick stack on the right-hand gable. The structure includes a one-storey hall range to the northwest and a jettied two-storey cross wing to the southeast, which has been extended by one bay to the northeast and refronted with the main elevation facing southeast.
The entrance consists of a boarded door located to the left of center. There are three ground floor transomed casement windows with two-centred heads for the upper lights, and four similar windows on the first floor. Inside, there is a 17th-century central stack and stop-chamfered ceiling beams that have been inserted into the open hall, which consists of two timber-framed bays, with an additional bay added to the northwest. The cross wing contains three original timber-framed bays with 18th-century details. The roof over the open hall has been reconstructed, retaining one original collar rafter truss, and there is a site for a hall window in the northeast wall.
