Description
Thatch Cottage is a cottage dating from the 18th century, with a 19th-century outbuilding that was converted in the 20th century. The building is made of rendered stone rubble and features a thatched roof with gabled and hipped ends. There is a large rendered chimney stack on the right gable end. The cottage has a small two-room plan, with a later range adjoining on the left at an obtuse angle. This adjoining range was formerly an outbuilding, likely used as stables and a linkway (barn).
The cottage is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical three-window range, plus three windows in the converted outbuilding to the left. The windows are 19th and 20th-century casements with one and two lights, featuring glazing bars and slate cills. To the left of the centre, there is a large 20th-century thatched porch with glazed double doors. The converted outbuilding projects on the left at an obtuse angle and has three 20th-century casements on the front. A small stream runs along the back of the house, which has no rear extensions, and there are various small casements on the rear elevation.
Inside, the right-hand room has a large slate rubble fireplace with an unchamfered cambered timber lintel and a cloam oven. There are no main beams, but there are roughly chamfered, closely spaced cross-joists. The roof space is not accessible, but straight principal rafters set on wall tops are visible in the first-floor rooms.
