Description

Thatched Cottage is a house, part of a pair of attached houses, dating from the late 17th century, with alterations and additions made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of stone rubble and cob, which is rendered, roughcast, and painted. It features a thatched roof with gable ends and has a gable end stack on the left with a rendered shaft.

The house has a two-storey, asymmetrical front with two windows. On the ground floor, there is a two-light, eight-pane 19th-century casement window with L hinges on the left, and a blocked doorway to the right that has a 20th-century two-light casement window inserted. The first floor includes a 19th-century two-light, eight-pane casement window with L hinges on the left and a later 19th-century four-pane sash window on the right. The left end of the house is blind and roughcast. At the rear, there is a single-storey 20th-century addition that conceals a doorway opposite the original front door and features a two-light, four-pane 20th-century casement window. The interior has not been inspected.
