Description
The Thatch is a cottage dating from the 17th or 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It features a timber frame with plaster and has a thatched roof, which includes two gabled dormers. A central extension creates a porch over a 20th-century board door with a light. The cottage is one storey high with attics and has a four-window range of diamond leaded casements. There is a central red brick chimney stack, which is now plastered.
