Church Cottage

Church Cottage is a 18th century front to a much older house located on Church Street in Chiseldon. The building is one and a half storeys high, thatched, and constructed of chalk and local random rubble, with the right-hand bay rendered. It features two brick ridge chimneys and three small three-light dormers in thatch with modern stone tile cills. There are two three-light casement windows and two modern bottle glass windows. The cottage has two doors made of ash, with strap hinges from a demolished church; the right-hand door has a stone tile bracket hood. To the left, there are garage doors. The rear of the cottage has five dormers, one of which contains old casement windows.

Inside, the west room has a large fireplace with a cambered lintel, and a huge internal lintel of the window facing the road is notched into a full cruck and the door wall, which may indicate residual timber framing. In the eastern roof, there are remains of a cruck and evidence of smoke blackening.
