Description

Sunnyside Cottage is a 17th-century cottage located on the east side of Chandlers Lane in Bishops Cannings. It features a timber frame with colourwashed brick noggings and a thatched roof. The building is single storey with an attic and consists of two bays, likely designed with a gable lobby entry plan. There is a brick lean-to beneath the stack that shows remnants of the original framing. The framing consists of three panels high with a heavy bressumer at the upper floor level and straight corner braces. A tiled gabled porch is present on the wider left bay, which was originally the hall. The cottage has a 20th-century half-glazed door and paned casement windows. There are two flush dormers on the front and one on the rear. Inside, there is a chalkstone stack and chamfered spine beams.
