• II

Cottage, C17. 1 storey and attics. 2-cell end-chimney plan. Timber-framed and plastered; the left hand gable is encased in painted brick. Pantiled roof, once thatched. An C18 or early C19 external chimney of painted red brick. An early C19 3-light small-pane casement, and matching half-glazed panelled entrance door. A further cell may have been removed from the left- hand end; the existing ground storey room has evidence for a pair of missing widely-spaced posts possibly associated with a smoke-bay. In the main room the joists are large, unchamfered and possibly reused; in the former smoke bay, joists are on-edge and probably a late insertion. Clasped-purlin roof. A small C19 rear single-storey extension.
