Description

Clements Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. The ground floor is constructed of red brick, while the first floor is plastered and features a wooden bresummer. The roof is covered with plain tiles, hipped to the right and gabled to the left. There are two rear stacks, one on each side. The first floor has two wood casement windows, and the ground floor has brick mullioned two-light latticed windows with brick labels above them. A central plank and stud door is set within a gabled porch. To the left, there is a catslide outshot. The cottage is included in the register for its group value only.
