Description
Skinners House Cottages is a house that dates from two periods. The left side features a 15th-century hall house, which is concealed by 16th-century or early 17th-century extensions at the front and right. Originally divided into four dwellings, it is now empty and awaiting conversion back into a single residence.
On the left, there is a gable-ended projection with diamond-paned windows, and the gable end overhangs, supported by carved wooden brackets and a moulded crosspiece. The building has two storeys and a small gable-ended attic window. In the centre, there is a smaller gable-ended projection that serves as a porch. The first floor originally jettied, but the ground floor has been built out.
To the right, the building has a ridge tile roof with a stack and a small half-dormer. It is two storeys high with plain cottage casements. The west elevation features a ridge tile roof with one end hipped, partly tile-hung, and has a weatherboarded addition at the rear. The plinth is made of random stone. Inside, there are large inglenooks made of dressed stone with carved beams, dais panelling with a moulded beam above, and much other exposed timber.
