Description

Wisteria Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the mid-19th century. It is constructed from plastered cob and rubble, with a rubble stack featuring a chimney shaft made of 19th and 20th-century brick, and it has a thatched roof. The cottage has a two-room plan and faces southwest, with a central axial stack that serves back-to-back fireplaces. There are service outshots at the rear, and the building stands two storeys tall.

This cottage has a Gothick cottage ornee style, with an irregular frontage. On the ground floor, there is one window towards the left (northwest) end, which is a three-light casement containing rectangular panes of leaded glass. The first floor features three windows, each with triangular heads that project into the eaves and are topped with small thatched gables. All three windows have two triangular-headed lights but different types of glazing. The left end window has small rectangular panes of leaded glass, while the centre window has larger rectangular panes of leaded glass, both topped with heads filled with tiny diamond panes of leaded glass. The right window, which serves the stairs, has an overall lattice pattern of tiny diamond panes of leaded glass, many of which are tinted green.

At the right end of the cottage, there is a plank door with a hipped, thatch-roofed porch supported by plain posts on low side sleeper walls. The roof is gable-ended to the right and hipped to the left. The right end features late 19th to early 20th-century casements with glazing bars, while the left end has a ground floor three-light casement with rectangular panes of leaded glass. Much of the leaded glass throughout the cottage consists of original crown panes. The interior has not been inspected.
