Description

The Bricks is an attached cottage that was originally a farmhouse, dating from around 1600, with 19th and 20th-century alterations. It features rubble stone walls and a slate roof with stone gable-coping at the center. There are two brick stacks located at the left-hand party wall and the right-hand gable. The cottage is two storeys high and has four windows, including one three-light stone mullion window on the right side of the ground floor, which is hollow-chamfered. The other windows are 20th-century two-light wooden casements with glazing bars and stone cills. The front door, which is made of planks, is positioned to the left of center, and there is a thatch-roofed porch with a pentice.

Inside, there are three open fireplaces with stone jambs and wooden lintels, one of which has filleted stops. A stone spiral staircase is located to the left of the fireplace at the left end of the cottage. There are five ceiling beams with very large chamfers and filleted stops. Upstairs, there are two early 17th-century fireplaces. The interior also includes remnants of a plank-and-muntin partition on the ground floor and a stud partition on the upper floor.
