Description

Old Henwick Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century and later. It is timber framed with brick nogging, and some sections have been added or refaced in brick, featuring tile hanging. The roof is hipped to the right, with tiles and thatch. There is an end stack to the left and an off-centre ridge stack to the left. The cottage has two storeys and all windows are 20th-century leaded casements. The right side has two framed bays with curved bracing, containing two first-floor and three ground-floor windows. There is a later one-storey addition to the right with a window. To the left, there are two gabled projections; the far left projection has a window on each floor, while the central projection features a tile-hung gable, a first-floor window, and a boarded door.
