Beehive Cottage

Beehive Cottage is a cottage that likely dates from the late 17th century or early 18th century, with some minor additions from the late 19th century. It is constructed of rendered cob and features a hipped thatched roof. There is a stone rubble outshut at the rear, which has a corrugated-iron lean-to roof, and a rendered lateral stack. The layout is a central-entrance plan, typical of around 1700, facing south, with an integral lateral stack located at the rear of the right-hand room. There is probably a 19th-century outshut at the back. The cottage is two storeys tall and has a symmetrical front. The first floor has three windows, while the ground floor has two; all are 19th-century two-light wooden casements. The central doorway features a late 19th or early 20th-century plank door with two square glazed lights, a beaded wooden frame, and a thatched gabled wooden porch. There are small wooden casements on the ground and first floors of the right-hand end wall. The interior has not been inspected.
