Wreylands Cottage Including Front Garden Railings To South

Wreylands Cottage is a 16th-century cottage with 17th-century alterations, originally part of a larger house. It is constructed of plastered cob on rubble footings, with rubble stacks topped with 19th-century brick and a thatched roof. The cottage now consists of two rooms, occupying the former hall and inner room of the original 16th-century three-room-and-through-passage house, which faced south. The original hall was to the west and the inner room to the east. A rear lateral stack is present in the inner room, with a left-end stack originally serving the hall. A newel stair turret projects to the rear of the hall, extending into a small, later addition. The cottage has two storeys and a roughly irregular three-window front featuring late 19th and early 20th-century casement windows with glazing bars. A 20th-century porch with a hipped thatched roof covers the front door on the left end.

The interior contains a 16th-century oak plank-and-muntin screen, with chamfered and roll-stopped muntins and a blocked flat-arched door. The hall features a chamfered crossbeam without stops, and close to the screen, a late 16th to early 17th-century half beam, chamfered with pyramidal stops, which is believed to support a first-floor crosswall on a small internal jetty. The hall fireplace is blocked. The inner room likely has an 18th-century fireplace with a plain oak lintel, and a probably 16th-century chamfered crossbeam. The roof is inaccessible, but timbers visible on the first-floor crosswall suggest the original roof structure remains. The front garden is enclosed by late 19th-century cast iron railings with ornate spear tops and a matching gate.
