Description
Cherry Tree Cottage is a farmhouse, likely built in the early 17th century. It has two storeys and features a three-cell cross-passage entrance plan. The structure is timber-framed and plastered, topped with a thatched roof that includes a central 17th-century chimney made of red brick. The cottage has three-light casement windows from the 19th or early 20th century, which are fitted with leaded lights. There is a mid-20th century glazed panelled door at the cross-entry, accompanied by a gabled porch supported by oak posts. Inside, there is a complete early 17th-century plank and muntin cross-passage screen. The building was formerly known as the Cherry Tree Inn.
