Description
Normandy Hill Cottage is a cottage that features a refronting dated 1737, built on the keystones of an older core that may date back to the 16th century. The cottage has been extended at both ends in the 20th century. The rear is timber framed, while the front is made of red brick with some grey headers on the right-hand return front. It has a plain tiled, hipped roof and stands two storeys tall with an attic, featuring two gabled casement dormers and a large, rebuilt square chimney stack at the center, which has a corbelled top.
The building has a plinth below and a plat band over the ground floor, with corbel bands on the east side. The first floor has four cambered arched casement windows with keystones, along with an additional 20th-century window on the left that matches the style of the others. On the ground floor, there are three windows, with a similar 20th-century copy on the left. To the right end, there is a 20th-century panelled door beneath a flat hood supported by braces, which features a foliage frieze, a dentilled band, and carvings on the braces. Additionally, there is a 20th-century garage at the right end.
