Description
Bridge Cottage is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the late 17th century and 18th century. It features brick and flint chequerwork, with the front rendered, and has a tiled roof. The building is two storeys high with three bays, and it has been extended by a narrower bay, now used as a study, at the south end around 1950. The entrance includes a half-glazed door with a pitched tiled canopy supported by brackets. The cottage has 19th-century six-paned sash windows that are irregularly placed, along with four bays of narrow four-paned sashes at the rear, some of which are paired. The north end bay is of separate and earlier construction. Gable stacks are present. Inside, the kitchen is located within the earlier north bay and features a deep chamfered spine beam with cut scoop stops. There is an open fireplace against the front wall, which is now blocked. The central unheated bay and the south bay, which is now a drawing room, have a cross beam and a blocked gable stack.
