Description

Green Hythe is a timber-framed cottage that dates from the 17th century or early 18th century. It was recased in red brick around 1800 and underwent further alterations in the mid-19th century. The cottage has two storeys and features a steep half-hipped roof covered with old tiles, along with brick dentil eaves. The first floor is primarily an attic storey. It has very tall mid-19th century brick chimney stacks that rise from the eaves and gabled tiled cheek dormers from the same period.

The gable end of the cottage has two revealed glazing bar sash windows with flat gauged rubber brick arches on the first floor, and a tripartite glazing bar sash window centered on the ground floor. There is a renewed doorway with a gauged rubber brick flat to the right. The hipped end features a four-light transomed wood casement window on the ground floor. Inside, the cottage retains part of a roof truss with a large tie beam and an end raked brace, as well as a chamfered ceiling beam in the corridor at the foot of the staircase.
