Description

Hunt's Cottage is a house dating from around 1600, with extensions added in the 17th, 18th, and 20th centuries. It features a timber frame with brick and flint walls, topped by a thatched roof, although some areas are tiled. The building has a lobby entrance and a central stack, with additions at each end and wings extending at right angles from the 20th century. It is one storey with an attic, while the wings are two storeys tall and have irregular window arrangements. The roof is half-hipped thatch with eyebrow dormers, and the south wing has a gabled tiled roof. The timber frame is mostly exposed in the upper sections, including in the 20th-century wings, with brick infill and some flint sections. The north wing features tile-hanging on the first floor. The windows are casements, and there is a six-panelled door, two of which are top-glazed, set in a plain frame, topped by a late 19th-century tiled hood supported by brackets.
