Description
John Hampden Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 17th century or early 18th century. It features a light scantling timber-frame structure with painted brick infill panels and a straw thatch roof with gabled and half-hipped ends. The cottage has a large painted stone rubble gable-end stack with set-offs and a brick shaft.
The layout likely consists of a two-room plan, with the left room being unheated and the right room heated by the gable-end stack. A single-storey outshut was added to the left end in the late 19th century or early 20th century.
The exterior is one storey and has an attic, with an asymmetrical front featuring two windows. There are small 20th-century casements and an attic window in a small eaves dormer. The central plank door is accompanied by a 20th-century wooden gabled porch, which appears to be made from earlier materials. Above the ground floor windows, there is a corrugated sheet steel pentice. The right gable-end has a large projecting stone rubble stack with set-offs, and the verges of the gable project to enclose the stack, supported by a long brace. The left end features a single-storey weatherboarded outshut with a corrugated sheet steel roof.
The interior is said to have exposed ceiling beams and a winder staircase.
