Description
Winifred Cottage is a cottage, probably from the 18th century. It is constructed of whitewashed rubble and features a combed wheatreed thatch roof. The roof is hipped at the left end and gabled at the right, with a hip over a single-storey extension on the right. There are brick chimneys at the right-hand gable and in the west corner. The cottage has a single depth and was possibly originally a two-cell structure with an adjoining store. The southeast side is two-storey, with the left two-thirds set forward slightly, while the northwest side is single-storey. The cottage is approached from the northwest, where there is a glazed 20th-century door in the centre and a 16-pane sash window to the left. The front has three windows, and the first-floor sash window on the northeast side has horns and two panes per sash. The cottage is built into the side of a hill.
