Description
Thatched Cottage is a 17th-century cottage that was formerly two dwellings. It features a rendered and underbuilt timber frame with a thatched roof, standing two storeys tall with an attic. The front has three bays with 20th-century two-and three-light casement windows. There are two front doors beneath a single 19th-century porch that has a decorative plain-tiled roof. At the rear, there is a single dormer, one gable-end stack, and one off-centre stack located at the rear of the ridge. Additionally, there is a contemporary lean-to at the rear and a later lean-to side extension.
