Description

The Willows is a building that was originally two cottages, now combined into one house, dating from the late 18th century. It is two storeys high and constructed with a timber frame that is rendered. The roof is hipped and thatched, featuring an internal chimney stack. The windows are modern, consisting of 20th-century two-light casements. There is a central entrance that is accentuated by a gabled single-storey porch.
