Description
Ford Cottage is a house dating to the 17th and 18th centuries, incorporating reused medieval timber. It is timber-framed and clad in weatherboarding, with a red clay tiled roof and a central red brick chimney stack. The house is two storeys and has attics, with a single-storey entrance range at the rear left. The front facade features a two-window range of 19th-century two-light casement windows, and two gabled dormers. The interior includes a back-to-back inglenook fireplace and an inglenook to a rear wall. Notable structural features retained include through bracing to the walls, a halved and bladed top plate scarf, and a roof pegged at the ridge. The building was formerly known as The Forge Alresford Creek.
