Description

This 18th-century cottage, possibly with earlier origins, is located on Cross End Road in Wavendon. It has a thatched roof, half-hipped in form, and two brick chimneys. The south-facing elevation features four attic windows, which are two-light segmental-headed casements that rise into the thatch. Below these, a central door is flanked by three casements on either side at ground floor level. The cottage is rendered and painted.
