Description
Comptons is a cottage dating from the 17th century, which was raised and significantly re-fronted in the early 19th century. The front of the cottage is built of brick with cambered arches. The north gable reveals an exposed brick-nogged frame, indicating the later alteration. It has a thatched roof with a catslide at the rear. The east front is symmetrical, with two storeys and two windows. It features cast-iron casements and a boarded door within a simple 19th-century porch.
