Description

The Cottage is a cottage dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. It has a timber frame that is cased in brick and features a thatched roof. The original 17th-century building consists of two bays and is encased in 18th-century brickwork, with a slightly later bay added to the right. The structure is three bays wide and one and a half storeys tall, standing on a brick plinth.

At the inner end of the left bay, there is an 18th-century planked door with a baffle entry. To the left, there is a 19th-century three-light leaded casement window with a camber head, along with a brick buttress at the corner. In the central bay, there is another 19th-century three-light leaded casement window with a camber head. The right bay features a brick pier at each end, linked by a projecting string course just below the wall plate, and has an 18th-century three-light leaded casement window. Above each window, there are eyebrow dormers with 18th-century three-light leaded casement windows, built on the exposed wall plate. The roof is hipped at the left end, with a ridge stack positioned above the door and an external gable stack at the right end. The gable is slate hung.
