The Cottage

The Cottage is a pair of cottages from the 18th century that have been combined into one building. It features a timber frame with plastered walls and a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The structure has four bays facing south and includes a central chimney stack. There is a single-storey lean-to extension at the rear, which has a slate roof and dates from the 20th century. The building is one storey high with attics and has two 20th-century casement windows, along with two additional windows in swept dormers. A central flat-roofed porch with a side door, also from the 20th century, is present. The roof is gambrel in style.

Inside, there are two large wood-burning hearths with brick arches supported by iron arch-strips, each having two blocked openings where ovens were once located. The interior features axial beams, one of which is reused, and exposed joists. Both original newel staircases are intact and located in the rear corners of the building. In each cottage, the internal tiebeam is interrupted by a strongly framed original doorway.
