Description
Broom Hill Cottage is a 16th-century cottage with a later hip bay, located on Lower Street in Braishfield. It features a timber-frame construction with painted wattle and daub and brick infill, topped with a thatched roof. The building is 1½ storeys high and has two bays, with a 17th-century hip bay on the right and an 18th-century brick hip bay on the left. The entrance door is positioned to the right of the center. Each bay has a 20th-century two-light casement window, along with a 20th-century single light window on the left side of the left bay and in the right hip bay. Above each bay, there is an eyebrow dormer with a two-light casement. The roof features a ridge piece and slopes down at both ends, with a central ridge stack.
