Myrtle Farm Cottage

Myrtle Farm Cottage is a house that was formerly a farmhouse, likely built in the 17th century. The upper parts of the building are rendered rubble, and the ground floor openings are also surrounded by this material. It has a thatched roof with brick stacks at the table ends. The original layout was a three-cell plan, built gable-end to the street, featuring a large lateral rubble stone hall stack at the front, with the brick shaft likely added later. The cottage has 20th-century windows, with a range of four 19th-century sash windows on the first floor that have a pointed shape above blank window heads, while the ground floor windows have been replaced with 20th-century casements. The interior has undergone significant alterations, including heavily patched 17th-century roof principals with trenched purlins. A cob partition in the roof space indicates that the farmhouse may have been divided into two dwellings in the 18th or 19th century.
