Description
Mill Cottage is an 18th or early 19th century barn that was converted to a house, and subsequently restored. It is constructed of rubble with a half-hipped Cotswold stone roof, and has a brick chimney located to the left of the centre. The building is two storeys high and has four bays with three windows, featuring glazing-bar sashes. A keyed oculus was added in the 1930s to the first floor, to the right of the centre, with a former doorway below now replaced with a window. A former window to the left has been converted into a door. Blocked slit-vents are present in the gable ends, indicating the building's original use as a barn. The conversion to a house happened before the 1870s.
