Description
West Burridge Cottage is a late 17th-century farmhouse located in Chawleigh. It features a structure made of plastered cob on rubble footings, with stone rubble stacks topped by 20th-century brick and a thatched roof. The house has a two-room layout with a central staircase and faces south, including a store open to the roof at the west end under the same roof. The east end has a projecting stack with a secondary oven projection.
The building is two storeys high and has a symmetrical arrangement of three late 19th-century casement windows with glazing bars. The central door is flanked by 20th-century buttresses that are battered back into the wall, and there is a store door at the left end. Inside, the cottage retains mostly plain carpentry details, which are mostly original. The right room features a rubble fireplace, although the lintel is hidden, and the crossbeam is soffit-chamfered with straight cut stops. The roof consists of A-frame trusses with pegged lap-jointed collars.
