White Oak Cottage And Dysart

White Oak Cottage and Dysart are two cottages located on the south side of Upper Street in Higham, likely dating from the 17th century. Dysart, which is to the left, is a later addition. White Oak Cottage features a timber-framed structure that is rendered, while Dysart has a front made of red brick that has been colourwashed. The cottages have rebuilt red brick chimney stacks and a thatched roof, except for the lower section of the front pitch, which is covered in plain tiles. The buildings are one storey with an attic and originally followed a two-cell plan, with a single-bay addition to the left that forms Dysart. The cottages have a pair of board doors and 20th-century three-light casement windows. There are three gabled dormers with off-centre casements along the ridge and chimney stacks on the right gable end. The interior has not been inspected.
