Description

Honeysuckle Cottage is a cottage, likely from the 18th century, that resembles Primrose Cottage. It features rendered cob walls and a thatched roof, with a brick stack at one end. The building is one storey with attics and has a single-storey lean-to on the south side, which also has thatch extending over it. There is a modern glazed porch with a tiled roof, and a second door leading into the lean-to. On the ground floor, there are two casement windows with glazing bars, while the attic contains two dormers with similar casements. The main room on the ground floor includes a large open fireplace with a timber lintel.
