Description
The Cottage and Tudor Cottage are two houses that were originally one building, dating from the 16th to 17th century and renovated in the 19th century. The structure features a timber frame with roughcast, while the ground floor is cased in red brick, which is painted at the front of the larger northern part (No. 5). It has steep old red tile roofs and is a long, one-and-a-half-storey building set back from the road, facing east. The northern end has a lower two-storey jettied crosswing, and the southern end is set back at ground level, creating an irregular jetty that shelters the entrance to the southern part (No. 3).
A large internal chimney rises through the front roofslope about a third from the southern end, and there is a large projecting rear-wall chimney at the northern part of the hall range. The eastern front has a window on each floor of the gabled crosswing on the right, three windows in the hall range, and a gabled porch to No. 5 situated between the right-hand pair of windows. Above the right-hand window is a gabled dormer at the eaves, and there is a gable with a window above the middle window. The windows are three-light flush casement types. There is one window in the southern gable and another in a short two-storey rear wing that continues the ground floor brickwork and extends further as a single-storey section. The two-storey part has narrow 16th or 17th-century brickwork at the base and features a chimney rising at the southern eaves. The roofs throughout are clasped-purlin types.
