Description
Kingfisher Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations from the 18th and 20th centuries. It is a timber-framed building with a thatched roof. The house is one storey high with an attic, and has a five-window front. The roof is hipped at each end and brought low over outshots, with a catslide above a rear extension, eyebrow dormers, and a forward extension to cover the porch. Most of the timber frame is exposed, with painted brick infill and a lower front wall, and vertical boarding to a north-east outshot. Casement windows are present. A 20th-century painted brick porch provides access via a boarded door.
