Description

Woodview Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with a western portion and a single-storey extension added in the later 20th century. The timber frame is exposed on the first floor, while the ground floor uses painted brick infill panels and casing. The roof is steeply pitched and covered in old red tiles, with a half-hipped western end. The cottage is a long, one-and-a-half-storey building, set back from the road, facing north. It has a gabled tiled porch located off-centre and three gabled dormers along the front eaves, along with four windows on the ground floor. The windows are casement type. Garage doors are situated in the lower part of the western section, and a plank door leads to the entrance. Before the 20th-century extensions, it was a three-cell house with three primary structural bays, featuring an internal chimney situated one third from the east end and an entrance one third from the west end. There is also an external gable chimney on the west side. Inside, the cottage features jowled posts, a heavy beamed floor structure, and a clasped-purlin roof with a collar and multiple-strut truss in the eastern gable.
