Description
Dormer Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century. It is timber-framed and rendered, featuring traces of pargetting in a zig-zag pattern, and has a thatched roof with a decorated ridge. The building has one storey and attics, with an internal chimney stack and another external chimney on the left gable, both made of plain red brick.
There are four eyebrow dormers on the front, each with old two-light small-paned casement windows, and three similar small-paned two-light casement windows on the ground floor, which have boarded external shutters. The rear slope of the roof also has three eyebrow dormers that match those at the front.
The entrance features a 20th-century plank door set within herringbone brick jambs, flanked by two small single-light windows with diamond leading. The house has a three-cell lobby-entrance plan. Inside, the exposed framing includes primary braces and bisected studs. The internal chimney stack has two back-to-back hearths with the remains of plain timber lintels. The roof structure consists of a ridge-piece, high collars, and side purlins.
