Bees Nest Cottage

Bees Nest Cottage is a house that was originally built as part of a terrace of five tenements in the early to mid 17th century. The cottage features an exposed timber frame with red brick infill from the 17th to 19th centuries. It has a plain tile roof and three red brick ridge chimney stacks with joined square shafts. The building is one storey high with attics, and it includes three gabled casement dormers. At the right end, there is a small gabled cross wing, which may have been added slightly later. The ground floor has six recent leaded casements, and there is a modern central porch along with a rear extension to the north. Inside, the cottage has exposed chamfered floor beams throughout.
