Description
Tye’s Cottage is a pair of cottages, the left-hand one originally a shop, dating to a late 16th-century reconstruction of a medieval house with 18th and 19th-century extensions on either side. The building is timber-framed and plastered, with a thatched roof covering the original part, while the right-hand extension (No. 15A) has plain tile roof. The main, earlier part of the cottage is two storeys high, while the extensions are single-storey with an attic. The original section has two rooms and includes casement windows, a gabled porch with a boarded door, and an internal chimney stack. The right-hand extension features a three-light casement window with paired boarded shutters, a gabled dormer window, and a gable-end stack. Exposed timbering is visible internally within Tye’s Cottage.
