Description
Bull Cottage is a house, which was later divided into two dwellings, dating from around 1600 and altered in the 20th century. It has a timber frame with a plastered finish and a thatched roof. The building features a small three-cell cross passage plan and is one storey high with an attic. The original entrance, located to the left of the center, has been blocked and replaced by a window. Towards the right end, there is a 20th-century thatched gabled porch. The windows include one, two, and three-light glazing bar casements with hoodboards, and there are three gabled dormers with two and three lights. An axial ridge stack is positioned to the right of the center, between the hall and the parlour.
The left gable end displays original brackets supporting the exposed plates, an attic two-light casement, and exposed purlins that are clasped by a cambered collar. The right gable end has three-light casements, a pentice board, and exposed plates and purlins. At the rear left, there is a boarded cross passage door, and at the rear right, there is a brick and pantiled lean-to addition. Inside, the cottage features close studding, pantry and buttery service rooms, a stop-chamfered axial binding beam in the hall, and reverse curved windbraces in the clasped purlin roof.
