Description

Badgers and Camille Cottage consists of two adjoining cottages that date from the 17th century or earlier, with some later alterations. The cottages are timber framed and plastered, featuring some panel pargetting in Camille Cottage. They have a red plain and pantiled roof, and a central red brick chimney stack. The buildings are two storeys high and have a four-window range that includes various 20th-century casements, one 17th-century casement with pightle hooks, and 19th-century small paned horizontal sliding sashes. There is a 20th-century vertically boarded door with a light to the left, and a gabled open porch with sidelights to the right.
