Hinds Cottage and attached pavilion

Hinds Cottage and its attached pavilion date back to the 18th century, with additions and alterations made in 1907 by Reverend Wynter Thomas Blathwayt for his gamekeeper, and further changes in the 20th century. The house is of coursed rubble construction with stone dressings and quoins, featuring a main roof of stone tiles with raised coped verges and kneelers, and double Roman tiled roofs to each side. A shed with a pantiled roof is attached to the front of the pavilion.

The main house is a two-storey, two-window structure. The ground floor has two four-light casements and a central 20th-century two-light casement, which formerly served as a door. The first floor has two three-light casements. All windows have chamfered stone mullions recessed within flat architraves and hood moulds. A single-storey addition to the left has a 20th-century door and two-light window. To the right is a lower, two-storey earlier section with a 20th-century panelled door and a similar three-light casement above.

Attached to the right, set back, is a two-storey pavilion with two restored oculi with glazing bars at the upper level and a coved cornice. The left return has a two-light casement at ground floor level of the addition.

The rear of the house features two three-light casements at ground floor and two two-light and a central single light at first floor, mirroring the front elevation. To the right, the lower addition has a 20th-century door and window. To the left, there’s a two-light casement at ground floor and a single light at first floor, consistent with the front.

The pavilion's (former front) features three 20th-century French windows, a moulded string course, restored oculi in moulded surrounds with glazing bars, a coved cornice that returns to the sides, and three possible former window heads set into the wall above the string course. The pavilion is depicted on Kip’s view of Dyrham and the water garden from 1712.
