Description
Bay Tree Cottage is a house dating from around 1700, with some 19th-century details. It is constructed of coursed, squared galletted flint and has a red pantiled roof. The house has three bays and is two stories high. On the ground floor, there are two arched-headed wooden framed casements with glazing bars. The first floor features two straight-headed casements with brick dressings around the openings. The central 19th-century panelled door is sheltered by a 20th-century wrought iron porch. The building has brick quoins, a corbelled eaves cornice, kneelers, and coped parapets. The steeply pitched roof is topped with two end gable stacks. The gable facing the road is blank, with a ground-level brick plinth and string courses at attic level, and there is one attic gable with a brick-dressed casement. The cottage is included primarily for its group value.
