Description
April Cottage and Greenways is a cottage range dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. The building is constructed of rendered cob with a thatched roof, featuring a gabled end to the south and a hipped roof cross-wing to the north. It has two storeys and a three-window front. The windows are a mix of two and three light casements, with leaded panes. A plank door is located on the right-hand side, with a modern hood over it. Rebuilt brick chimney stacks are visible at the ridge and ends. A lean-to addition is present at the north end. A small, two-storey rendered stone addition was built in the 19th century on the south end.
