Description
Ditchampton Cottage is a mid to late 18th century building made of rendered chalk-cob and topped with thatch. It features four ranges of small two-light casement windows. A later addition is the central hipped thatch porch, which projects from the main structure and includes two two-light casements and a half-glazed door. There is an external chimney on the right side. The left-hand bay was added more recently, during which a large inglenook fireplace and chimney were removed.
