Description
Ivy Cottage is a detached cottage dating from the mid-18th century, located in Powerstock Village. The west elevation features rubble-stone walls and a thatch roof with gable ends. There is one brick stack on the left-hand gable and one stone stack on the right-hand gable. The cottage is two storeys high and has two windows, which are three-light wooden casements with horizontal glazing bars, although these are 20th-century replacements. The central door is recess-panelled and includes two glass lights, topped with a wooden lintel, also from the 20th century. The north extension of the cottage, added in the 20th century, is not listed.
