The Thatched Cottage, Associated Buildings, Ruins and Garden Walls

This is a small house, along with an outbuilding, associated ruins, and garden walls, dating from the early 18th century. The house is constructed from granite and moorstone rubble with dressed quoins, jambstones, and lintels. It originally had a thatched roof, but this was replaced with corrugated asbestos; there are original granite and later brick chimney stacks. The house has a two-room plan with a cross passage between rooms, and a lean-to at the rear right. A small, single-storey outbuilding, likely a former stable, adjoins the front at the left. There are extensive ruins of a former building adjoining the front corner of the house to the left. It is two storeys high, with rooms in the roof space. The south front is nearly symmetrical, with three windows and a central doorway, now containing a 20th-century window. The other windows are four-pane sash windows, with those on the first floor set in taller openings. A painted granite rubble garden wall, along with the outbuilding, enclose a shallow, rectangular garden. A cobbled pavement runs in front of the wall, and a gateway aligns with the original doorway of the house. Ruins and a stone and earth hedge fronting the road enclose another rectangular area.
