Description
Pickersdane Cottage is a house dating from around 1600, with extensions added around 1700 and in the 19th century. The house is timber-framed and partly clad in red brick, including areas in a Minster Bond pattern, with tile hanging on the first floor. It is two storeys high, set on a plinth, and has a hipped roof with stacks located centrally to the right and projecting, and truncated, at the end to the left. The first floor has two wooden casement windows, while the ground floor has three, alongside a plank and stud door centrally to the right. A single-storey bakehouse extension is attached to the right. There is an outshot to the rear. The interior reveals the original timber framing of a two-cell lobby entry plan, extended around 1700 by one bay to the east. A stack is constructed from chalk blocks. (Further details are available in Traditional Kent Buildings, volume 5, pages 32-33).
