Description

Warmwell Cottage is a detached house, likely the original house of Warmwell Farm, dating from the 18th century. It features plastered cob walls and a hipped thatched roof with a central brick chimney stack. The building has two storeys, with a lower extension on the south side that also has a thatched roof. At the rear, there is a single-storey lean-to with a slate roof. The front entrance includes a part-glazed door, while the ground floor has three 20th-century casement windows. The first floor is fitted with four top-hung windows that have glazing bars.
