D'Arcy Cottage

D'Arcy Cottage is an 18th-century house located on South Street in Tolleshunt D'Arcy. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features a roof made of handmade red clay pantiles and plain tiles. The building has a single-span range facing west, with an internal stack on each side and a 20th-century rear extension.

The house stands two storeys high with attics. On the ground floor, there is one late 18th-century or early 19th-century sash window with 16 lights, and a late 19th-century splayed bay window with sashes arranged in a 2-4-2 light configuration. The first floor has two similar sash windows and a blank recess above the door. In the attic, there are two 19th-century sash windows with 12 lights and one plain fixed light.

The central entrance features a six-panel door, with the top panels glazed, flanked by attached columns with Ionic capitals. It has a pulvinated frieze and a dentilled pediment, although the wrought iron scrolled bracket for a lamp above the pediment is incomplete. The brickwork on either side of the splayed bay has been altered. The eaves cornice is dentilled, and the roof is gambrel-shaped, with plain tiles on the lower pitch and pantiles on the upper pitch.

According to the 1953 List, the doorcase has been removed from D'Arcy House to the north. Inside, the right ground-floor room features a chamfered axial beam with lamb's tongue stops, while the left ground-floor room has an axial beam with small ovolo moulding, 18th-century pine panelling, and two recessed cupboards with arched heads.
