Cherry Cottage Cherry Orchard

Cherry Cottage and Cherry Orchard is a house, likely dating from around 1500, with a 20th-century extension to the rear. It is timber-framed, with much of the frame exposed, and has a plaintiled hipped roof. The ground floor has a rendered brick plinth. A brick stack is located to the left of the centre of the building, and a second stack is behind the ridge, partially rebuilt in two phases. The house likely originally had a cross-passage hall plan. A blocked doorway with a four-centred arched head, which retains its intact spandrels and now contains a small fixed light, is positioned in the cross-passage area, slightly left of the stack. The ground floor has a central four-pane casement window, with a smaller window to the right. Upstairs, there are three four-pane, two-light casement windows, that central one replacing a larger original window which is now partly blocked. A small window is located to the left below the eaves. The frame is generally intact, although repairs to the ground floor right have involved thinner timbers. On the left return, there is a three-by-two-pane ground-floor window and a partly glazed door, with a four-pane casement window above. The right return has a partly glazed door, a four-pane horned sash window, and a 20th-century two-light casement window above. An external stack is visible on the rear wall of the presumed parlour (right). The interior was not inspected.
