Description
Tudor Cottage is a house dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, with alterations made in the 20th century. It features a timber frame that is plastered and has a steeply pitched thatched roof. The building has a six bay, three cell cross passage plan and stands two storeys tall. The entrance is now located to the left of the center, leading into a lobby next to the stack, with a recessed boarded door. The windows are 20th-century casements, some of which have been inserted into earlier openings that feature diamond mullions. There is an axial ridge stack situated between the hall and parlour bays, which is cement rendered.
The gable ends display exposed plates and purlins, along with bargeboards. A pantiled lean-to outshut is present at the front of the service end, which has a 19th-century stack inserted on its front slope.
Inside, the cottage has a clasped purlin roof with cambered collars, halved principal rafters, and cranked windbraces.
