Description
Nimrods is a 17th-century cottage range that has been converted into a single house. It is constructed of stone rubble and is positioned at right angles to the road. The roof is made of concrete tiles and features gabled ends. The building has two storeys and a six-window range, with the east end having been an outbuilding in the past. Modern casements and glazed doors have been installed, and the left-hand doorway includes a porch with a moulded timber frame, possibly featuring original ceiling beams. The chimney stacks at the ridge and ends have been rebuilt in brick. At the rear, there is a catslide roof over an outshut. Inside, the property boasts stopped chamfer ceiling beams, an open fireplace with a chamfered bressummer, and stone jambs.
