Description
Bridge House is a 17th-century timber-framed and plastered house that was altered in the 18th century and renovated and further altered in the 20th century. The building has two storeys and features a three-window range with 20th-century casements. There is a central doorway topped with an open pediment, and the roof is tiled. This house is included for its group value, as it is part of a collection of listed buildings in the village, which also includes Dweina, No 1 Elm Cot, Lime Tree Cottage, and the Almshouses, all of which are of local interest.
