Description
Pendle Cottage and Appleton are two houses that were originally built as one in the mid 17th century. They have a three-cell plan and are one storey high with attics. The buildings are timber-framed and plastered, topped with a thatched roof featuring two 19th-century eyebrow casement dormers. There is an axial chimney on the right, which has been rebuilt in 19th-century red brick, and another 19th-century chimney on the left. The houses have various 19th and 20th-century casement windows. Pendle Cottage includes a 20th-century lean-to porch with a pantiled roof and a boarded entrance door, while Appleton has a gabled porch with a concrete tiled roof. Inside Pendle Cottage, there are 17th-century primary-braced studding and a clasped-purlin roof; a reused wall-plate features a 14th-century splayed scarf joint. The interior of Appleton has not been examined.
