Description

No. 66 Stourton Lane is an estate cottage dating from 1850, as indicated by the datestone above the door. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick with stone dressings and features a tiled hipped roof adorned with bands of fishscale tiles and brick stacks. The building is two stories tall and has a symmetrical front with five windows. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed door set in a gabled stone and brick porch, which has a dated keystone above a semi-circular headed opening. On either side of the door are two 2-light casements, each with dropped keystones. The first floor also has five 2-light casements with dropped keystones.

The right side of the building has a 20th-century first-floor casement, while the rear includes a lean-to extension with 2-light casements. Attached to the left side of the rear is a single-storey woodshed with a planked door, and to the right are stables featuring two planked doors and 2-light casements on the north side. This cottage is believed to have served as a hunting box for the Stourhead Estate, and the initials on the datestone belong to Hugh Richard Hoare, the 4th Baronet, who significantly improved the estate's buildings. The cottage is prominently located at the junction with Tower Road.
