Description

Sunbury Cottage and Cobblestones is a house that has been converted into two cottages. It dates from the 17th century and is constructed of coursed pebble flint with brick dressings and a red pantiled roof. The building is two storeys high and features three windows on the east front. This front has two arched-headed 19th-century casements, a central straight-headed casement, and a fire window at the south end. On the first floor, there are two 19th-century two-light casements set in 17th-century brick-dressed surrounds, along with one 20th-century window inserted at the south end. The gables are brick dressed, with the south gable made of coursed knapped flint and featuring a brick string course at the attic level, an indecipherable brick date plaque, a brick diamond lozenge above it, kneelers, and a brick-coped gable. The building has end gable stacks and a steeply pitched roof. The rear of the property has three first-floor rectangular window openings from the 17th century, which have been partly reduced with later brick and 19th-century casements. The Cobblestones section to the north includes a two-storey brick wing addition from the 19th century.
