Description
Fisherman's Cottage is a house dating from the late 16th century, with 20th-century additions. It features a roughcast timber frame and white painted brick additions on the right and rear, topped with an old tile roof. The building consists of two framed bays and is two storeys high. There is an end stack to the right and a stack in front of the ridge to the left. The cottage has two first-floor two-light casements and two ground-floor two-light casements, which flank a central boarded door that is sheltered by a 19th-century gabled lattice timber porch. To the left, there is a weatherboarded outbuilding with a hipped old tile roof. Inside, the cottage has chamfered beams and joists, as well as an old newel staircase located at the rear.
