Description
King Charles' Cottage is a 16th-century hall-house that has been converted into a cottage. It features a timber frame clad in flint with rendered dressings. The roof is plain tiled, hipped with a gablet on the left side, and there is an end stack on the right. The building has a truncated hall-house plan and stands two storeys high, with an irregular front that includes three windows fitted with casements. There are two part-glazed doors: one to the left of the left-hand ground-floor window and another to the right of the right-hand ground-floor window. Inside, the cottage has a crown-post collar-purlin roof.
