The Limes Cottage

The Limes Cottage is an early 18th-century house and shop, extended in the later 18th century and altered in the 19th and mid-20th centuries. It is built of red brick on the ground floor and has a tile-hung first floor, with a plain tiled roof. The house comprises two parallel ranges. The front range is two stories and has a garret with a gambrel roof and a chimney stack to the left end. It has three 20th-century casement windows on the first floor, where earlier sash windows once stood, and a four-light 20th-century casement window on the ground floor. A central panelled door is present, with a flat hood over it and a projecting shop front to the right, featuring a plate glass window and door. The rear wing has chimney stacks to both ends and 20th-century casement windows on each floor. The original window arrangement survives to the rear, and there is a catslide outshot to the rear right. The cottage is included on the register for its group value.
