Description
Tillingbourne Cottage is a cottage dating from the 16th century, with a 20th-century extension to the right. It features a timber frame clad in galleted Bargate sandstone rubble with brick dressings, and the right extension is made of brick, while the left gable shows the exposed frame of thin scantling. The roof is plain tiled and the building has a T-shaped plan with the 20th-century wing projecting to the right.
The cottage stands two storeys high and includes a moulded brick plinth, a stringcourse, and brick angle quoins, along with a plat band above the ground floor. There are two windows on the first floor and two on the ground floor, all with tile sills. A central 20th-century door is accessed by four steps and is set within a 19th-century gabled brick porch. To the left, there is a 20th-century pentice with one window, and the right-hand gable has one window on each floor, both under tile hoods. At the rear, there is an offset 19th-century corbelled stack.
Inside, the frame is exposed on the ceilings and walls, and there is a deep fireplace on the rear wall.
