Description

Goldings is a cottage dating from the 17th century or earlier. It is timber-framed and has a plastered exterior with decorative pargeting. The roof is thatched and hipped. The cottage has two storeys and a three-window front, featuring 19th-century casement windows. A bay window with small-paned casements is centrally positioned on the ground floor. A red-tiled gabled porch is enclosed and sits on the right return. A central red brick chimney stack is present. It is believed that blocked mullion windows exist internally.
