Olivers Cottage

Olivers Cottage is a house that dates from the 16th or 17th century, with later additions and alterations, including a 20th-century crosswing on the right and a forward lean-to porch. The building is timber framed and plastered, topped with red plain tiled roofs. There is a red brick chimney stack to the right of the central range, which does not connect at the ridge to the right crosswing. The central range has one storey and an attic, featuring a gabled dormer to the right, while the left and right crosswings are two storeys high. The windows consist of a 1:1:1 arrangement of 20th-century casements. There is a large 20th-century single-storey lean-to extension off-centre to the left, which has a vertically boarded door on the left return. Two sets of rafter feet are visible. A brief inspection of the ground floor reveals a two-bay house to the right and a crosswing to the left, both with heavy chamfered bridging joists and flat section ceiling beams, as well as an inglenook fireplace with a straight mantel beam above.
