Description

Lychgate Cottage is a 17th-century cottage located in Upton Pyne. It features plastered cob walls resting on a stone plinth, topped with a thatched roof and gabled ends. The building has an L-shaped layout, with a shorter wing that may have originally been a barn, now incorporated into the house and consisting of a single storey with a hipped roof. The main part of the cottage is designed in a three-room plan, with end stacks; the left-hand (west) stack includes a bake oven projection and a fire window beside it.

The cottage has two storeys, with three windows on each floor, featuring 19th and 20th-century two and three-light casements with glazing bars. The left-hand ground floor has a 20th-century oriel window on carved brackets, which likely indicates the original doorway's location. The current right-hand doorway is sheltered by a thatched hood. The former outbuilding's external door has been replaced with a renewed plank door set in an opening with a stopped and chamfered lintel. Inside, the division between the two right-hand rooms is marked by a stud and plaster screen that is unchamfered and unstopped. The roof consists of three bays divided by large principals with collars.
