The Cottage, Ravenstock Farm

The Cottage at Ravenstock Farm is a house dating from the early 16th century, with a wing added in 1969. It is timber-framed and rendered, featuring a 20th-century red tiled roof and restored red brick stacks. The building has an L-shaped plan, with the older range and the shorter addition appearing similar. It stands two storeys high.

On the southwest front elevation, all features are from the 20th century, including windows with one, two, and three light casements arranged in a two-window range, a central door, and a stack on the gable end to the southeast. The northwest gable end of the early 16th-century range is blank, with a central stack. The rear northeast elevation mirrors the front, with the old block projecting at the northwest end, which has a ground floor slated lean-to, a boarded door, and a two-by-two paned casement window. To the southeast, there is a 20th-century block with two ground floor windows and one first floor window. The southeast elevation features the gable end of the 20th-century block, a central stack, a ground floor 'stable' door, and a window. The northeast side, set back to the rear, shows the 16th-century block with single windows on both the ground and first floors. The northwest elevation displays the 16th-century block in the house style, with one ground floor window and two first floor windows, plus a lean-to at the northeast end. Ridge stacks are located at both the northeast and southwest ends.

Inside, the framing of the old range is exposed, showing external tension braces and step stopped chamfers, with two window shutter grooves on each floor. The central truss features studding that continues from the tie-beam to the collar of the side purlin roof. The stack at the northeast end includes some 17th-century brickwork. There is a timber lintelled fireplace with a doorway leading to the site of a bread oven, and a blocked brick arched fireplace on the first floor.
