Description
Ivy Cottage is a house dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of sarsen rubble with brick dressings and features a tiled roof. The building is two stories high with an attic and consists of three bays. There is a 19th-century extension at the rear, which has the same roofline, and a two-bay wing to the right, also from the 19th century, made of brick with a slate roof. The central entrance has been altered with 20th-century glazed French windows replacing the original door. The windows are 16-pane sashes, with a scratch date of 1802, set beneath gauged brick lintels that have stone keystones. The mansard roof includes three 4-pane dormers and brick gable stacks. The extension features identical windows under segmental brick arches. The interior does not contain any items of historical interest. Ivy Cottage occupies a prominent position in The Square.
