Description
Bennett's Cottage is a building likely dating from the late 18th century, located in Grafton and Radcot. The roof is said to have been raised around 1940. The cottage is constructed from roughly coursed limestone rubble and features a stone slate roof. It has a two-cell plan with end stacks and stands two storeys high. On the first floor, there are two 20th-century casement windows with contemporary wood lintels, while on the ground floor, there is one casement window to the left of a four-panel door and a small 19th-century casement window to the right. The integral end stacks show the outline of the former roof pitch visible below on the right side.
