The Cottage

The Cottage is a house that consists of two ranges, with the right side dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century and partly demolished, while the left side is a two-storey block built in the late 17th century. The property was converted into cottages in the mid-19th century. The walls are roughcast, with a timber frame on the right side, and the roof is tiled on the left and thatched on the right, featuring roughcast and 20th-century brick stacks.

The left range is a two-storey, three-window structure that includes a 20th-century porch and door, as well as early 20th-century windows. It has a gabled roof with a ridge stack. The right range is one storey with an attic and has two windows, a blocked door, mid-19th-century two- and three-light casements, one 20th-century casement, and a gabled roof with a ridge stack. The rear left side features mid-19th-century casements, while the rear right has one 18th-century lead-latticed light.

Inside, the late 17th-century block on the left has chamfered beams throughout, a full set of chamfered and stopped beams and joists in the ground-floor room on the right, an early 18th-century fireplace with a bolection-moulded surround on the left, late 17th-century winder stairs, ribbed doors, and a collar-truss roof with butt purlins. The late 16th-century to early 17th-century block on the right has chamfered beams, an inserted stack, two mid-19th-century straight flight staircases, and a two-bay queen-post roof. Originally, the late 16th-century to early 17th-century block extended further to the left, as indicated by the upper face of the truss adjoining the late 17th-century block facing right.
