Westacott Westacott Cottage

Westacott Cottage is a house and adjoining cottage from the mid to late 17th century. The structure is made of plastered cob on rubble footings, with cob stacks topped by 19th-century brick and a wheat reed thatch roof. The two-storey building faces southwest and consists of a house on the right with a symmetrical two-room layout, featuring a central cross passage, end stacks, and service rooms in single-storey outshots at the back. To the left is a single-room cottage with a gable end stack and a rear outshot. Both sections are under a continuous roof, with the rear pitch extending over the integral outshots. The overall front has four windows, but the house itself has a symmetrical three-window arrangement.

A two-storey porch is centrally located on the house, topped with a gabled thatched roof and a broad moulded band at the first-floor level. The ground floor features four-light timber casements with three panes per sash, while the first floor has three-light timber casements. The cottage has a thatched gable porch with open sides supported by posts and a late 17th-century six-panel studded door to the right of a three-light timber casement with three panes per sash. The roof is hipped to the left over the cottage and gabled to the right. The ground floor rooms have roughly finished beams, but other original interior features are not visible as the interior has not been inspected.
