Description

Hulver Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the 16th century, with the section to the right of the stack being a later addition. It is timber framed and plastered, topped with a thatched roof. The building has one and a half storeys and features two old three-light casement windows along with two smaller windows, one of which was added in the mid-20th century. In the right gable, there is a casement window with early diamond-leaded glass. To the right, there is a doorway with a boarded door from the mid-20th century. Inside, there is an internal stack and exposed framing, while the floor in the earlier section appears to have been added later.
