Description

Kichermans is a detached cottage with origins dating back to the late 17th century, though it was altered in the 19th century. The walls are constructed partly of brick and partly roughcast, topped with a thatched roof and featuring brick stacks at both ends and in the center. The cottage has two storeys and includes a 19th-century brick porch with a flat roof and parapet, along with one double-hung sash window. On both the ground and first floors, there are two casement windows and one double-hung sash window, all of which have glazing bars. Inside, the main room on the ground floor features a chamfered ceiling beam with moulded stops. At the rear, there is a single-storey lean-to under a catslide roof.
