Pitt Head

Pitt Head is a cottage and former outbuildings, likely built in the late 18th to early 19th century, and modernised around 1980. The structure appears to be made of plastered cob on stone rubble footings, with stone rubble or brick stacks topped with 19th and 20th-century brick, and a thatched roof. The original house faces southwest and is situated at the back of the lane. It features a two-room plan with a central staircase and end stacks. The former outbuildings, attached to the right (southeast), have been incorporated into the house, creating a two-room service block with an axial stack, along with a narrow store attached at the end.

The building is two storeys high. The main block has a symmetrical three-window front featuring late 19th-century casements with glazing bars; the outer three lights and the central first-floor two lights. The central door is an original six-panel door, with the top panels now containing small panes of Victorian leaded glass. The porch, likely from the mid to late 19th century, has a flat roof supported by slender turned timber posts, with trellised sides. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped at both ends.

The lower service block to the right is slightly set back from the main front and includes two 19th-century ground floor casements and two half dormers from around 1985 with flat roofs. The door at the left end is from the 20th century. The roof continues over the narrow store at the end and is gable-ended. The rear of the main block has only a small central stair window at first floor level, flanked by recessed rectangular panels. The service block features a narrow half dormer and a 19th-century plank door. The interior has some exposed carpentry that is plain and roughly finished, with some 19th-century joinery detail. The roof was not inspected. The building is marked as Kennels on the Ordnance Survey map.
