Description
Dunt's Cottage is a cottage dating from the 17th century, or possibly earlier, and has undergone alterations over time. It is constructed with a timber frame, with colour-washed brick and plaster infilling between the timbers, and has an old tile roof. A large chimney with square shafts is located to the left of the centre. The cottage has two storeys. The south-east front features a gable to the left with a three-light upper casement window. To the right is a central porch, a semi-dormer, and a number of irregularly placed casement windows. The interior retains many exposed timbers.
