The Anchorage

The Anchorage is a Grade II listed cottage, originally built as a pair in the 17th century and later encased and extended in the 18th century. It features a timber-frame core with colourwashed brick and a thatched roof. The building is 1.5 storeys high and has five bays, with doors located one bay in from each end. The door at the road end is an 18th-century planked design set in a raised brick panel with a segmental head, while the far door is planked and situated under a 20th-century open gabled porch. The other bays contain 2-light segmental headed casements, with an additional 2-light casement above all but the bay with the road end door. The roof is half-hipped and has a large chimney stack positioned above the road end door and another at the far end.
