Description
Stables Cottage is a cottage built in the 17th century, with an extension added in the 18th century. It features a timber frame that is plastered and has a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The cottage has two bays facing northeast and includes an external stack at the left end. There is a single-storey crosswing at the right end, which dates from the 18th century. The building is two storeys high with attics.
On the ground floor, there are two 19th-century casement windows. The first floor has two original windows, one three-light and one two-light, each fitted with a wrought iron casement and diamond leading. The entrance is marked by a plain boarded door. There is an incomplete bread oven located at the front of the stack. The structure features jowled posts and primary straight bracing. Inside, there is a chamfered transverse beam with plain stops, and all other chamfers in the frame also end in plain stops. The original floorboards are still present, and the roof has clasped purlins with arched collars.
