Description
Twistles is a cottage dating from the 18th century, constructed of rendered cob with a thatched roof. It has two bays and features a 20th-century lean-to at the rear, standing at one and a half storeys. The central entrance consists of an early 20th-century door set back in an opening, with a shelf to the side. To the left of the door is a two-light casement window, while to the right is a three-light casement window. The roof is half-hipped and includes casements in the gables, along with a central stack.
