Description

Apple Tree Cottage is a house dating from the early 17th century. It is timber-framed with angle braces and consists of two panels deep, standing on a rendered plinth. The roof is gabled and half-hipped, covered with old tiles, and there is a stone stack finished in brick at the left end. The house has a two-unit plan, is two storeys high, and features a three-window range. The front has a 20th-century door and casements, while the rear includes an 18th-century two-light leaded casement.

Inside, the large living room and kitchen on the left have quartered and chamfered ogee-stopped beams, along with a spice-cupboard door next to an open fireplace that has a chamfered bressumer and a bread oven. To the right, a transverse beam originally separated a service room. The first floor features a three-bay queen-post roof with windbraces, which remains open to the collar in two rooms on the left.
