Description
Windwhistle is a farmhouse that has been converted into two cottages, dating from the early 19th century. The building features brick walls and a thatched roof, which is hipped at the north end and has a catslide at the rear. It stands two storeys tall and has four windows, with the walls constructed in Flemish bond with blue headers. The ground floor has cambered openings, and the north gable has been rebuilt. The windows are casements, and there are plain doorways, one of which at the north gable is topped with a thatched hood.
