The Cottage

The Cottage is a pair of cottages that have been combined into one house. The front section dates from the early 19th century, while the rear section is from the 17th or 18th century. The building is constructed from pebble flint with gault brick dressings and has a hipped roof covered with pantiles. It features two bays and is double depth with two storeys. There is a central chimney stack, and the doors and windows have quoined brick jambs, along with a quoined flush central vertical column in brick. The outer sides of the bays have four-panelled doors, and the sash windows, which have glazing bars, consist of six large panes each, with two on each floor, all topped with segmental stone lintels. Inside, the front rooms have moulded fire surrounds. The lower two-storey rear range has a steep pantiled roof, with a brick front and a part-rendered coursed flint gable.
