Description

May Cottage is a house from the 17th century, likely altered in the 20th century. It has rendered rubble walls that may include some cob and a thatched roof that is gabled at the left end and hipped at the right. There is a projecting rendered rubble stack with a brick shaft at the left gable end, and a similar stack that does not project at the right end. The original layout was a three-room-and-through-passage plan, with the lower end likely on the right. The hall was heated by a front lateral stack that is now blocked off. A 19th-century outshut has been added in front of the left-hand room.

The exterior features two storeys and has an asymmetrical front with one window on the upper floor and four windows on the ground floor, which are 20th-century small-paned one and two-light casements. There is a 20th-century gabled porch to the right of the centre with a glazed door. In front of the left-hand end is the 19th-century outshut, and to its right is the truncated projecting lateral stack. The interior was inaccessible during the survey but may contain original features such as ceiling beams and fireplaces.
