Description

Croucher’s Cottage is an 18th-century cottage. It is built with a random rubble stone ground floor and a tile-hung first floor, and has a hipped, plain tiled roof with a stack set off-centre to the rear. The cottage is two storeys high and has two casement windows. A central, boarded door is accessed by six steps and has a flat hood supported by brackets. The building is listed as a good example of a modest domestic building in a traditional local style.
