Description

Noake's Farm Cottage is a cottage dating from around 1700, designed in an L-plan. It features a timber frame and plastered exterior, with painted brick on the right end bay. The roof is ridged and gabled, thatched, and includes one renewed chimney positioned to the right of the center. There is also an eyebrowed dormer with two casements on the ground storey. The left wing of the cottage has two sliding sash windows and a door, while the right end has a peg-tiled lean-to. Inside, there is a corner cupboard with original shelves and panelled doors on left hinges.
