Description
The Thatch is a small cottage dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of stucco and has a thatched roof. The front (west-facing) elevation is symmetrical, with one storey and an attic, featuring two windows. A single-storeyed extension projects at the north end. The roof is hipped and gabled, with eaves raised above the dormers, which have cills at eaves level. The walls are plain. The windows are casements, and there is a gabled tiled canopy over the plain glazed front door.
