The Thatched Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the 18th century and has undergone later alterations and additions. It is constructed with a timber frame and has a plastered exterior. The cottage features a thatched roof with an outshot at the rear and a central red brick chimney stack. There are two eyebrow dormers, and the building is one storey with attics. The front has a two-window range of three-light small paned casements. The entrance is an off-centre right vertically boarded Gothick door, with a letter box located to the left of the doorway.
