Description
Lings Cottage is a two-story timber-framed and plastered house, dating from the 14th century with later alterations. It has a peg tile roof, hipped at the east end with a single-story lean-to, and hipped with a gablet at the west end, featuring a ridge line red brick stack. The west elevation is clad in black weatherboarding. Windows are a mix of 19th-century timber casements with glazing bars and older cast iron casements. The interior reveals portions of the ground and first floors of a 14th-century timber-framed building, including an angled dragon beam, a central tenoned floor joist, and jetties to the west and the road. The remainder of the structure is a 17th-century rebuilding, featuring jowled posts and straight bracing.
