Keeper's Cottage

Keeper's Cottage is an estate cottage built around 1870, possibly designed by Slater and Carpenter, and is part of the Seacox Heath estate. The building has been altered in the 20th century. The ground floor is made of coursed stone rubble, while the first floor features a combination of tile-hanging and timber-framing with roughcast infill. The roof is covered with clay plain tiles and has gabled ends with decorative fretted bargeboards. There are brick stacks on the lateral and gable ends with tall clustered shafts.

The cottage has an L-shaped plan, with a small single-storey wing added in the late 19th or early 20th century and a mid-20th century gabled bay at the rear, along with a late 20th-century conservatory on the south side. The exterior is designed in a picturesque Gothic style and consists of two storeys with asymmetrical elevations. The east front features a jettied timber-framed gable on the left, adorned with pierced wavy bargeboards, curved bracing, and fishscale tile-hanging in the gable apex and window tympanum. It has a three-light mullion-transom window with leaded casements on the first floor and a canted bay window on the ground floor, also with leaded casements. To the right, there are two additional windows on the first floor, which are tile-hung.

The right-hand (north) return has a similar jettied gable, but it features two casement windows on the ground floor and a mid-20th century extension on the right with a lateral stack. The south side has a gable on the left with the late 20th-century conservatory and tile-hanging on the first floor to the right, along with a lateral stack. The rear (west) side includes a small single-storey gable-ended wing on the right and a mid-20th century projecting tile-hung gable on the left, with a doorway between that has a gabled canopy. Some of the windows have been replaced in the 20th century. The interior contains some 19th-century joinery and 20th-century chimneypieces.
