Apple Tree Cottage Vernon Cottage

This is a former house, now divided into two dwellings, dating back to the 16th century. It was floored and heated in the 17th century, and significantly altered in the late 18th and early to mid-19th centuries, with further extensions in the later 19th century and alterations in the 20th. The building is timber-framed, mostly covered with brick and whitewashed, and has tiled roofs.

Apple Tree Cottage, on the left, represents the original three-bay hall. It is a single storey with an attic, featuring an entrance on the right with a gabled hood. A 20th-century casement window is located to the left, with a slightly cambered head. A two-light dormer window is present. The left gable end reveals the timber frame construction, including jowled posts, a rail, studs, a tie beam, and queen struts to collar clasping purlins. Two four-light casement windows are also visible. A short wing projects to the rear, with an external brick stack featuring offsets on the left side.

Attached to the right is Vernon Cottage, which incorporates part of the original building. The front wall of Vernon Cottage is set back behind the brick façade of Apple Tree Cottage. It has 20th-century casement windows below an added gable. A mid- to late-19th-century extension on the right contains the entrance. The interior has not been inspected.
