Description

Lime Tree Cottages are two cottages located on The Green in Ockley, dating from the 17th century but refaced in the 19th century. They are timber framed and have a base of red and blue chequer-work brick, which was once colourwashed. Above this, the cottages feature plain tile hanging and have 20th-century machine-tiled roofs. The gable ends are rendered with pebbledash.

The cottages are two storeys high and have a central chimney. Most of the windows are leaded, with five varying-sized windows across the first floor, the rightmost window having plain glazing. On the ground floor, there are four windows, two of which are leaded. To the left, there is a planked door set in a trellis porch with an arched entrance and a gabled roof topped with ridge cresting. This porch features cusped and pierced bargeboards with a pendant spike finial. To the right, there is a ribbed door in a similar porch. Each gable end has a projection with one ogee-arched, leaded casement window. At the time of the last survey, the left-hand extension was partly derelict.
