Description
Gold Brook Cottage and Hollydean, formerly one dwelling and now two cottages, primarily date from the 17th century, with possibly older origins. There are mid-20th century rear additions. The buildings are timber framed and roughcast-rendered, topped with a thatched roof that is half-hipped to the left. They are one and a half storeys tall. Gold Brook Cottage features one 19th century casement window and a 20th century gable-end porch with a door. Hollydean has two mid-20th century standard small-paned casements and two gabled dormers with 19th century windows, along with a mid-20th century door. There is a small internal stack. The interior of Hollydean remains unmodernised, with much of the structure concealed. It has square joists in the main ground floor room and some plain studding with reverse-curved braces on the upper floor, along with two doors from the 16th to 17th centuries. The interior of Gold Brook Cottage has not been examined.
