Description
Brickkiln Cottage is a pair of attached cottages that have been converted into one house, dating from the late 18th century and altered in the 20th century. The building is timber framed and plastered, with the frame exposed at the front and a thatched roof. It has four bays facing east, featuring a central stack. There is a single-storey extension from the 19th or 20th century at the rear of the right end, which includes an end stack, as well as a 20th-century lean-to extension on the right, roofed with red clay corrugated tiles. The cottage is one storey with attics. On the ground floor, there are two 20th-century casement windows and one 20th-century diamond-shaped fixed light. The first floor has two 20th-century casements in swept dormers. A plain boarded door is set in a 20th-century recessed porch. Inside, there are two wood-burning hearths, with the right hearth featuring an introduced rounded back. The structure includes primary straight bracing, face-halved and bladed scarfs, and chamfered axial beams with run-out stops. There is one original internal door, although it is not in its original position.
