Description

This cottage, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries, features a timber-frame structure with rendered cob on a flint plinth and a thatched roof. It is small, with a single storey and an attic, consisting of a bay and an outshot. The entrance is a planked door located to the left of centre, with a blank bay on the left side. In the centre and right outshot, there are 2-light casement windows, and a 2-light eyebrow dormer is positioned in the centre of the roof. The roof is hipped and slopes down to the right, with a stack located at the right end of the ridge.
