Windetts Farm Cottages

Windett's Farm Cottages are a pair of dwellings that were originally a farmhouse built in the early 17th century. The building underwent alterations in the early 19th century and was divided into two cottages in the early 20th century. The ground storey is constructed of red brick in English bond, with gable ends and a stair turret. The first floor features red brick in Flemish bond, which replaced the original timber frame. The right gable end retains its timber framing, with English bond brick on the ground storey. The roof is covered with clay pantiles and has corbelled kneelers at the copings, along with a 17th-century brick ridge stack and a truncated brick stack on the left with removed octagonal flues.

The building has a three-unit lobby-entrance plan and stands two storeys high with an attic. It presents an asymmetrical four-window range, with a square lean-to stair turret that projects to the left of centre. The doors and windows are mainly from the 20th century, except for two late 19th-century first-floor casements, an earlier 19th-century one-light window to the left of centre, a blocked chamfered window on the left side of the stair turret, and a blocked original doorway to the right of centre. There is a late 19th or early 20th-century gabled porch to the left.

Inside, the central room features a cyma-stopped chamfered beam and large unchamfered joists. There is a chamfered arched doorframe with ogee stops leading to a former service room on the right. A wooden newel staircase leads to the turret, though the top section of the newel has been removed and replaced with a chinoiserie balustrade. The first floor displays gunstack jowled posts, some with surviving arch braces, supporting cyma-stopped chamfered tie beams. The roof is a five-bay clasped-purlin structure with diminished principals and collars, and the intermediate collars have birdmouth joists to the purlins. Curved windbraces are present, and a trimmer to the rear rafters indicates the position of a former dormer. The right-hand gable end shows exposed close studding and features a five-light window with chamfered mullions that are not rebated for glass, along with a timber-framed screen to the left.
