Description
Chymor and Sun Cottage is a town house located at the end of a row in East Looe, originally built in the 17th century and refronted in the mid-19th century. The building features rendered rubble with bands on the front and painted rubble on the right-hand end. It has a steep concrete tile roof with two 20th-century dormer windows, along with a shallower-pitch asbestos slate outshut at the rear. There is a rendered rubble stack on the right with a later brick shaft, and a rendered lateral stack at the rear of Chymor on the left. The building has a double-depth plan and a later outshut at the rear right. It stands three storeys tall, with the second floor partly in the roof space, and has an irregular two-window range. The late 19th-century windows are 4-pane horned sashes, except for an older 4-pane 2-light casement in the centre of the first floor. Chymor features a 19th-century four-panel door, with the top two panels later glazed, while Sun Cottage has an early 19th-century pilastered doorway with a moulded entablature and a 20th-century door. At the rear of the garden, there is a wall with sockets for former beams from a pilchard-pressing floor. The interior retains original floors and roof structure, although it has not been fully inspected.
