Description
Tea Caddy Cottage is an early 19th-century brick cottage located on the west side of Higham Hadleigh Road. The cottage is constructed of red brick in a stretcher bond pattern, topped with a plain tile roof. It is two storeys high, with two bays, and features a lobby-entry plan with bowed ends that rise to conical roofs. A half-glazed door with Gothic-style glazing to the upper panes is set within a 20th-century timber porch, flanked by small-paned casement windows with sills. The first floor has two-light casement windows with pointed heads and Gothic-style glazing. A corniced central stack is present. The interior has not been inspected.
