Description

Corner Cottage is a cottage dating from around the 18th century. It is constructed of red brick with some blue brick headers and features a thatched roof with gabled and half-hipped ends. There is a brick stack at the gable end. The cottage has a two-room plan, with a living room and kitchen on the left, heated by the gable-end stack, and a smaller unheated service room on the right. There is a single-storey outbuilding attached at an obtuse angle to the right end.

The exterior is one storey with an attic and has an almost symmetrical two-window front facing southeast. It features two-light casements with glazing bars; the right window on the ground floor has leaded panes, and to its right is a very small casement. The central doorway has a plank door and a later gabled brick porch. The single-storey thatched roof outbuilding, which has later brick walls, is attached at an obtuse angle on the right end. The rear wall is blind except for a doorway on the left.

Inside, both ground floor rooms have unchamfered joists and chamfered axial beams, with the left room featuring run-out stops, a large brick fireplace with an unchamfered timber lintel, and a blocked oven. There is a heavy timber-framed central partition, and the attic chambers are ceiled.
