Description
Ash Cottage is a cottage dating from the late 17th century, with a 19th-century addition. It features plastered cob walls and a half-hipped thatch roof, with a central brick axial stack. The layout consists of a two-room plan with a baffle entry in front of the central stack, serving both rooms. A 19th-century lean-to has been added to the right-hand end. The original front doorway was blocked in the 20th century, and a new entry was created into the right-hand room.
The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical one-window front. There is a single 19th-century three-light casement window on the ground floor, located to the right of centre. To the right of this is a 20th-century gabled porch with panelled and glazed double doors. At the centre of the cottage is a slight two-storey projection that contains the blocked original doorway. A stone slate-roofed lean-to is attached to the right-hand end, featuring a two-light casement window on the front.
The interior is not fully accessible, but it appears that original features may be concealed beneath early 20th-century modernisations, although they likely still exist underneath.
