Description

This is a cottage that adjoins Pixie Cottage at the northeast, dating from the 17th century or earlier. It has whitewashed plastered cob on stone footings and a tiled roof, which was probably thatched in the past. The roof is gabled at the right end, and there is a front lateral stack. The plan features a single depth with two rooms wide and a cross passage to the left, likely representing the hall and inner room of a three-room and through passage house, with the lower end (Pixie Cottage) having been rebuilt.

The cottage is two storeys tall with an asymmetrical two-window front. The entrance is a plank front door located at the extreme left, leading into the cross passage. There are two small casement windows on the ground floor and one attic dormer on the first floor. Inside, the heated room has chamfered stopped axial beams, and the 20th-century chimneypiece likely conceals an earlier lintel and jambs. A winder stair is located in the rear right corner of the heated room, and there is a chamfered doorframe between the heated room and the inner room. The first floor and roof have not been inspected, but the roof timbers may be of interest. This cottage is part of a group situated on a corner site.
