Description
Vale Court Cottage is a small house built around the mid-17th century. It features rendered rubble walls, which may include some cob, and has a half-hipped thatch roof. At each end of the cottage, there are rendered brick stacks set on a rubble base. The layout consists of a two-room plan, with each room heated by a fireplace located at the end walls. A newel stair projection is positioned at the center of the front wall.
The cottage is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with two windows on the ground floor. The central stair projection has a small blocked light. On the first floor, to the right, there is an 18th-century 16-pane horizontal sliding sash window. Below it, on the ground floor to the right, is a mid-20th century metal-frame two-light casement window. To the left on the ground floor, there is a later 20th-century two-light casement window without glazing bars. A 20th-century lean-to glazed porch is situated immediately to the right of the stair projection, featuring a glazed door behind it.
The interior was inaccessible at the time of the survey, but it is likely to contain original beams and fireplaces, as well as either a stone or timber newel stair.
