Description
Hawthorne Cottage is a house that was formerly two cottages, dating from the late 17th century or 18th century. It is timber-framed and rendered, topped with a plain tile roof. The building consists of three timber-framed bays and has two storeys plus a garret, featuring a half-hipped roof. There is a rendered brick stack at the left end of the central bay. The windows are arranged irregularly, with two two-light wooden casements and two three-light casements on the ground floor. To the right of the centre, there is a rendered porch with a lean-to roof and a boarded door, along with a rear lean-to.
Inside, the cottage showcases exposed framing, with bevelled cross beams in each of the two ground-floor rooms and another beam across the right side of the stack. The first floor has axial beams, and the principal posts are gunstock-jowled. The roof features staggered butt purlins. The right ground-floor room contains a rendered rectangular inglenook fireplace, while the left room has a small elliptical brick fireplace with a wooden bressumer. There are attic stairs located behind the stack.
