Weaver'S Cottage

Weaver's Cottage is a former farmhouse dating from the late 16th century, with a 19th-century addition to the south. The original part of the building is timber framed and plastered, topped with a thatched roof. It has two storeys and a disused attic, following a two-cell, end chimney plan. The cottage features various old casement windows and a 19th-century half-glazed, four-panelled door located in the side wall. On the north gable end, which faces the road, there is another four-panelled door accompanied by a narrow oblong fanlight. A lean-to on the west side was previously used as a workshop. The 19th-century addition is made of rendered clay lump and has a shallow-pitched pantiled roof. The timber frame remains largely intact but mostly concealed. Inside, there are plain joists on the ground floor, and the girding beam in the service partition is moulded to the cross-passage. There are two service doorways, one of which is blocked. The cross-partition on the floor above features a cambered tie beam and a heavy two-centre arched doorway.
