Description

Beach Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the 18th century or slightly later. It features rendered rubble walls and a thatched roof that is hipped at the left end and gabled at the right. There is a brick stack at the gable end. The cottage has a two-room plan, with the right-hand room being heated. The exterior is two storeys high and has a regular front with two windows, which are 20th-century small-paned two-light casements. The central door is a 19th-century plank door with a hood above it. The interior has not been inspected.
