Small cottage. Probably C17 origins. Colourwashed rendered cob with corrugated iron roof, formerly thatched, gabled at left end, left gable end stack. The cottage may originally have been part of the inner end of a large C17 house which was divided into a row of 4 cottages probably in the C18. Alternatively, it may have been 1 of a row of 4 C17 small cottages. Single depth plan, 1 1/2-rooms wide with direct entry into a large heated room to the left, the half room is a small unheated service room to the right. 2 storeys. Approximately symmetrical 2-window front with a central front door under a timber lintel. Ground floor window right C20 pivot-hung casement under a timber lintel. Other windows C20 2-light casements with glazing bars, ground floor window left under a timber lintel. Interior Plan intact, stair against rear wall. No access to roofspace at time of survey (1985) but roof trusses may be of interest. One of a row of 4 cottages facing the main road through Clawton. 'Mazoe' is paired in plan with 'Tudor Rose' (qv) which adjoins at the right and is an unusual survival of a very small 2-room cottage.
