Description

This is a 17th-century timber-framed cottage, significantly restored and enlarged in later centuries. It is two storeys high with four windows. The original timber frame is now largely filled with modern red brick. The roof is tiled, and the windows are modern casements, with one old bay window projecting on brackets to the east. A modern gabled projection is centrally located, and a chimney breast on the east wall is finished with roughcast render. A modern addition extends to the west end.
