Description
Cottage, dating from around 1800, with renovations undertaken in the 1980s. The walls are constructed of cob on stone rubble footings, colourwashed and rendered, and are topped with a gabled water reed thatched roof. A brick shaft rises from an axial stack. This is one of a pair of cottages, originally three separate properties. The left-hand side of No. 1 may have been a single-cell cottage, while the right-hand side was likely one half of a two-cell cottage. The current layout comprises a single-depth, two-room wide structure with a rear lean-to, which was probably added in the 19th century for service rooms. The two-storey front has an asymmetrical two-window design. A 20th-century thatched porch canopy is present on the left-hand side, with the eaves slightly eyebrowed over the first-floor window to the right. The windows are two-light casements with six panes per light. Inside, slender exposed joists are visible. The cottage is part of a group of thatched cottages located at Gridley Corner.
