Description
Ivy Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century, with extensions added in the 19th and 20th centuries. It has a timber frame that is plastered and features a thatched roof. The cottage is small, consisting of two cells and has one storey with an attic. The central entrance is a boarded door flanked by three-light glazing bar casements, all of which have hoodboards. Above the entrance, there is a two-light dormer with eyebrow thatching. An internal stack is located at the right end, while the left end has a two-light casement in the attic above a pantiled lean-to outshut. At the rear, there is a transomed three-light casement. Attached to the right is a single-storey extension made of clay lump, with pantiles, dating from the 19th and 20th centuries. Inside, some of the framing is exposed and consists of thin scantling.
