Description
Chew Cottage and Newbridge House are possibly remnants of a bridge chapel, now functioning as two cottages. They date from the late 15th to 16th centuries, with remodels in the 17th and late 18th centuries. The buildings are constructed of rubble with freestone quoins and feature a pantile roof with coped raised verges. They are two storeys high and have three irregularly placed windows, which are two-light casements with glazing bars and under cambered lintels. On the left side, there is part of a blocked doorway with a four-centred head. The east gable end, associated with Newbridge House, includes a three-light casement window in reserved chamfered surrounds with mullions, along with 19th and 20th-century extensions to the east and rear. The west gable end, linked to Chew Cottage, shows traces of an arched window and remains of a decorative ashlar cill band featuring plain shields within trefoils.
Inside, the ground floors of both cottages have chamfered beams with broached stops and chamfered and cambered lintels above the fireplaces. Both gable ends retain significant parts of blocked arched windows or openings, and there is a fragment of ashlar. Notably, there is a four-centre headed fireplace in the first-floor room of Newbridge House.
