Ray'S Cottage The Old Bakehouse

This is a pair of cottages, likely originally a lobby-entrance house, dating probably to the 18th century and altered in the 20th century. The timber frame is clad in weatherboarding, with a tile-hung extension to the rear of The Old Bakehouse. The roof is half-hipped and tiled, but may originally have been thatched, with a central brick chimney stack. The Old Bakehouse has an external chimney stack to the rear, and Ray's Cottage has an external chimney stack to the side. The cottages have two storeys and two windows. The Old Bakehouse has a 19th-century triple sliding window to the first floor, a triple casement window to the ground floor, and a left-side doorcase with a weather hood. Ray's Cottage has a 19th-century casement window to the first floor. The ground floor of Ray's Cottage has 20th-century casement windows and a central plank door under a wooden penticed weather hood. An outshut to Ray’s Cottage features an open fireplace with a wooden bressumer and exposed floor joists, a series of plank doors, and a winder staircase located behind an early 19th-century plank door.
