Description

Capenor Cottage is a former outbuilding range associated with the now-demolished Capenor Court, dating from the 18th century. The building is arranged in an L shape and constructed of rubble with a pantile roof. It stands two storeys high and features five windows, along with two additional windows in the building at the west end, which were formerly barns. The ground floor includes 3-light mullioned wood casements. The east range has three windows and is also two storeys tall, but it has undergone significant alterations.
