Description
Orchard Cottage is a house dating from the mid to late 17th century, featuring a timber frame construction. The ground floor is made of red brick from the 18th century, while the upper floor is weatherboarded. It has a steeply pitched roof covered with plain tiles and a 17th-century red brick ridge stack with two joined shafts and a tiled offset. The house is two storeys high and has five 20th-century leaded casement windows, each with two to three lights. There is a single-storey lean-to attached to the building. The rear elevation displays square timber framing with thin scantling, infilled with red brick. The northern bay is weatherboarded and may have been added later. At the southern end of the rear, there is a stack in the slope of the roof, likely associated with a baking oven.
