Description
This is a detached cottage dating from the 17th century, and potentially incorporating an earlier structure. The exterior is rendered and whitewashed, with a thatched roof and brick stacks at each end. It is laid out in an L-shape. The cottage has one and a half storeys and an irregular pattern of windows. These are 2-light casements with glazing bars. A 20th-century porch and door are located in the re-entrant angle of the L-shape.
