Description

No. 627 Blandford Road is a building dating from the late 16th century to early 17th century. It features timber-framed walls with plaster infill, although part of it has been rebuilt in brick. The building has a thatched roof and a brick chimney stack with an ornamental cap. It is one storey high with attics and has a two-room plan, where the service room is divided into a pantry and a buttery, similar to Manor Cottage. The chimney stack and end gable wall were rebuilt in the 19th century.

On the main north elevation, the ground floor has two casement windows with lead lights. The attic includes one modern replacement dormer with casement windows that also have lead lights. The entrance is located in the east gable wall and features a ledged door with a glass panel. The ground floor has an additional casement window with lead lights, while the attic has two similar windows.

Inside, the main ground floor room has deep chamfered ceiling beams with ogee stops. An original timber-framed partition survives on the first floor, complete with a door opening. There is an opening in the timber-framed wall next to the stacks that suggests a newel stair once existed there. Additionally, there is a 18th-century plank and muntin partition on the first floor. At the time of the survey, a modern attached garage was under construction.
