Praps Cottage The Gardens

Praps Cottage and The Gardens are a pair of semi-detached, but not identical, cottages likely built in the 18th century. They feature plastered cob walls resting on a rubble stone base and have thatched roofs. There are brick chimneys: one at the left end of Praps Cottage, one near the center, and one at the right end of The Gardens. The cottages are two stories tall. Praps Cottage has a panelled door, and the ground floor includes four casement windows with glazing bars, one of which is in a blocked doorway. The first floor has three similar casements. The Gardens has raised plaster quoins at its right end and one casement with glazing bars on each floor. To the right of the house, there is a plastered cob wall with an entrance gate leading into the yard, and the entrance to the house is located in the end wall. At the rear, there is a later brick extension with a thatched roof, which runs parallel to the front range. This extension was further extended to the right in the 20th century with brick and thatch at the first-floor level, while the ground floor remains open as a covered way supported by stone piers.
