Cummery Cottage

Cummery Cottage is a house with late 17th century origins, although much of the interior was reconstructed after a fire in the 1970s. The building is made of whitewashed rendered cob, with the right end wall rebuilt in concrete block, and features a thatched roof that is hipped at the ends. It has a lateral stack that heats the hall and a right end stack that heats the lower end. The layout is likely a three-room and passage plan, with the hall heated from the rear lateral stack and an adjacent projecting stair turret. The partition between the inner room and the hall has been removed. The cottage is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical four-window front, featuring regular fenestration of two-light casement windows with small panes. A 20th-century thatched porch on posts leads to the front door, which is located in the passage to the centre right. Inside, one chamfered cross beam survives in the lower end room, while the rest of the interior is modern. The exterior is picturesque and visible from the roadside.
