Description
Thatch Cottage is a house that was originally two cottages, dating from the early 18th century, with a 19th-century addition and 20th-century alterations. The building features rendered cob and rubble walls and a thatched roof that is hipped to the right and gabled at the left end. There are two brick stacks, one axial and one at the left gable end.
The original layout likely consisted of two cottages, each with a two-room plan, but it now comprises two rooms. The left-hand room is heated by a fireplace in its end wall, while the right-hand room, which used to have two rooms, is heated by an axial stack. The former outbuilding at the left end has been converted as part of the 19th-century addition.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical front featuring two windows, which are later 20th-century diamond-leaded pane casements, one and two-light. There is a 20th-century stable-type door to the left of centre and a lower addition at the left-hand end.
Inside, the cottage has open fireplaces with high unchamfered wooden lintels.
