Description
No. 63 Westwood Glen is a mid-17th century, 1½ storey thatched cottage. The building has three bays, with the central bay now featuring a catslide roof leading to the porch. It includes two irregular ranges of modern windows and eyebrows over the attic. The rear of the cottage has three eyebrows and a kitchen extension. There are two gable end chimneys, with the one on the east being particularly large and stepped. The interior has been altered, and the cottage was originally three separate cottages.
