Description
Trinity Cottage is a house that dates from the 17th century or earlier, with a probable extension from the 18th century. It is constructed of banded flint and rubble, brick, and timber frame. The roof is thatched, featuring both hipped and half-hipped sections, with a stack located at the left end of the original range and another near the centre, running parallel to the ridge. The building has two storeys and displays irregular fenestration, primarily consisting of 2 and 3-light casements with horizontal glazing bars, along with some leaded lights. The doors are plain plank types. It is likely that the cottage was once used as two separate dwellings.
