Description
Pedder's Cottage is a late 17th-century cottage that features a timber frame with plastering and a thatched roof. It has three bays facing southeast, with an axial stack located one bay from the right end and an external stack at the left end, both dating from the 17th century. The cottage is one storey high with attics and includes two 20th-century casement windows, two fixed lights from the 19th or 20th century, and two 20th-century casements in swept dormers. There are also two plain boarded doors, and the roof is hipped only at the left end.
Inside, the cottage has chamfered axial beams with lamb's tongue stops and exposed joists arranged in a vertical section on pegged clamps. It features two large wood-burning hearths, one of which has an inglenook seat and an opening for a former bread oven. There is a fully framed and pegged doorway on the first floor, and the roof is constructed with clasped purlins. This cottage is noted for being an unusually unaltered example of its period.
