Tudor Cottage

Tudor Cottage is a house, formerly a house and shop, now serving as a house and tea-rooms. It dates from the early 17th century or earlier, with a 19th-century facade. The building is timber framed, with the front elevation and left gable end constructed of red and grey brick in Flemish bond. The right gable end features red brick on the ground floor, while the first floor displays exposed broadly-spaced studding with red and grey brick infilling. At the rear corner, there are two adjacent principal posts, with the inner post being shorter and tension-braced. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has two storeys, sitting on a galleted stone plinth. The wall-plate includes an edge-halved scarf-joint, and the roof is hipped. There is a red and grey brick stack slightly to the right of the center. The windows are irregularly arranged, featuring two three-light casements under the eaves, similar ground-floor windows with segmental heads, and an additional window towards the left end. The entrance has a ribbed door with a segmental head located under the stack. To the left, there is a red and grey brick rear lean-to, and to the right, a single-storey rear return wing with a hipped plain-tile roof and a buff brick stack on the right side, along with a door near the junction with the main range. The interior has not been inspected.
