Description
Church Cottage is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with an 18th-century brick casing on the right side of the ground floor. The building features a Gothic-style porch and a west range that were added in the early to mid-19th century. It has a timber frame, with roughcast at the front and weatherboarding on the gable ends, sitting above a ground floor that is cased in red brick. The roof is steep and covered with old red tiles. The single-storey west range is made of painted brick.
The central porch is made of plum brick and has a corbelled plastered upper storey. The house is rectangular, with two storeys, a cellar, and attics, designed in a two-cell layout with an internal chimney and a lobby entrance. It faces south and has a long single-storey west wing that projects at the front.
The front elevation features two gabled dormers on the roof slope, two 2-light casement windows on the first floor, and a similar window to the left of the porch on the ground floor. To the right of the porch, there are two sash windows with 6/6 panes. All windows have small panes, and the top lights are pointed with sunk spandrels. The porch has a battened door set in a chamfered Tudor arched opening, flanked by small pointed windows. The gables are adorned with cusped bargeboards, and there is a large central chimney made of red brick.
