Exon Cottage the Cottage

Exon Cottage, built in the mid-19th century, is an almost symmetrical two-storey pair of houses with a square block attached on the south side, positioned forward in a Tudor estate style. The building features a tiled roof with coupled gables at the center of the front (west). The upper walls are tile-hung, decorated with scalloped bands, while the lower part is made of red brickwork in Flemish bond with blue headers. The casement windows have cast-iron lozenge glazing bars and wooden frames, with the ground-floor windows projecting on curved brackets and topped with pent roofs. The doors are plain and have different porches. The attached block has a steep pyramid roof with gabled dormers on the west and south faces. The south side also includes two small gablets on carved brackets, flanking a central window, with the west central window featuring a projecting frame on brackets. There are later additions in a matching style.
