Description
The Old Cottage, Little Barn, and Mulberry Cottage, formerly known as Ye Olde Cottage, is a farmhouse that has been divided into three houses. It is dated 1636 on the front of the Old Cottage, although the front is likely from the 18th century. The Old Cottage is constructed from cobbles, dressed flint, and some random flint used for repairs on the side elevations, with brick and brick dressings, topped with a tiled roof.
The exterior features two storeys over a basement and has three windows, making it double-fronted. There is a round-arched entrance with a fanlight that has decorative glazing, and a panelled door of original design framed by a wooden doorcase with partly fluted engaged Doric columns supporting an open pediment with a dentil cornice. All the windows are segmental-arched, with the side windows on both floors being tripartite with sashes of original design. Additional features include a storey band, a parapet, and a two-span roof with end stacks made of brick.
Little Barn and Mulberry Cottage form a lower range to the east, made of dressed flint with cement and brick dressings, and also have a tiled roof. This section is single-storey with dormers in the attic and features late 20th-century flat-arched entrances, windows, and dormers, along with a brick dentil cornice and a mansard roof with end and ridge stacks.
The interior includes a low garden wall made of flint with brick coping, which is interrupted for gates and returns to the Old Cottage at its western end.
