Description
Cross Cottage is a house that dates from the 17th century on the right side, with a cross wing to the left that is dated 1713 in the gable. The right side is timber framed, with brick underbuilding and rendered infill above, while the left side is constructed of red brick with blue brick headers. The roofs are plain tiled and the building has a T-shaped plan. It stands two storeys tall, featuring an end stack on the right and double diagonal stacks on the left side, both set on a plinth with an oversailing top.
On the right side, there are two framed bays with two casement windows on the first floor and one below. The left gable bay sits on a rendered plinth and has plat bands over the ground and first floors. The gable features a square panel with the date and "BII" in rubbed brick. Each floor of the left wing has a 3-light casement window. There is a 20th-century part-glazed door located in a brick porch with a pentice roof, situated in the re-entrant angle of the wing. Additionally, there is a rendered pentice roof extension at the right end.
