25, The Street

No. 25 is a cottage located on The Street in Saxlingham Nethergate, dating from around 1600 with later alterations. It features a rendered timber frame, with brick and some flint on the gable end. The building has an L-shaped plan due to an 18th-century service extension at the rear. It stands two storeys tall with a former attic and has a mid-19th-century symmetrical facade consisting of three bays, each with sash windows that have vertical glazing bars and jalousie shutters. The central entrance is marked by a door beneath a latticed porch. At the rear, there are three 18th-century three-light windows with metal casements. The gable-end stack is flanked by two small windows, one of which is blocked, both featuring rectangular hood moulds. The structure has a two-bay frame with a shorter service bay that previously had an attic. The roof is a high-quality four-bay clasped purlin design, complete with wind bracing and a raised tie to the service partition truss. There is also one surviving blocked four-light diamond mullion window, and the building displays stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
