Description
Chartway Cottage is a house dating from around 1600, with alterations made in the late 18th century or early 19th century, as well as additions from 1956 and the 1970s. The building is timber framed, with the ground floor clad in red brick featuring occasional grey headers, which may have been partly rebuilt. The first floor is tile hung, and the roof is covered in plain tiles, hipped with gablets. The house has a lobby entry plan consisting of three timber-framed bays and stands two storeys tall. There is a ridge stack located towards the left end of the roof, and the fenestration is irregular, featuring three 2-light casements. A door beneath the stack is blocked, while a glazed door from the 20th century is found in the rear extension. Inside, the cottage showcases exposed framing, chamfer-stopped ground-floor beams, and gunstock-jowled posts. There are also mortices for diamond mullion windows, an edge-halved scarf joint, a queen strut roof, and an inglenook fireplace. It is said to have been the residence of the Wood Reeve for the East Sutton Park estate.
