Honeysuckle Cottage And Adjoining Dwelling

Honeysuckle Cottage and the adjoining dwelling is a house that has been converted into two dwellings. It dates from the mid to late 16th century and was altered in the 19th century. The structure features a timber frame that is plastered, with some brick casing and additional elements. It has a steeply pitched thatched roof and originally followed a cross passage plan with three cells. The building is two storeys high with an attic and has two entrances, each with gabled porches that are not in their original positions. The windows include 19th and 20th century casements with one, two, and three lights, some featuring timber hoodmoulds. There is a ridge stack located between the hall and parlour on the left side of the building. The left gable end has brick casing and a pentice board above the weatherboarded attic. The right gable end faces the Green and includes an entrance with a half-glazed door in an open gabled porch, along with cross casements on the first floor and exposed purlins. To the left, there is a single-storey brick outbuilding with a flat roof that was formerly a shop and post office, dating from the 19th century. The rear elevation has an entrance and a cross casement window with early leaded lights on the first floor, as well as an added external stack towards the front. Inside, the building features a cross axial binding beam and posts with continuous double hollow moulding between the two hall bays, an axial binding beam in the parlour, close studding, tension braces, and arched braces from jowled posts to tie beams; however, the roof has not been inspected.
