Description

Holly Cottage is a house dating from the 17th to 18th century, constructed of rubble stone and featuring a thatched roof with a ridge stack and outside end stacks. The building has one and a half storeys. On the left side, there is a broad eyebrow over a four-light cyma-moulded recessed mullion window, which is topped with a hoodmould. The ground floor includes four added buttresses, a casement window in a frame for a two-light mullion window with a hoodmould, and a hoodmould above a removed mullion window. There is also a door with a timber lintel and a 20th-century casement window to the right. The right end has a straight joint with a blocked door and a pair of casement windows, both featuring timber lintels.
