Description

Hole Court is a cottage currently used as a store, dating from the early 17th century, possibly with earlier origins. The building features rendered cob and rubble walls and has a gable-ended thatch roof, with a rendered rubble stack at the right-hand end. The current layout is a one-room plan, but it likely originally extended to one or both sides, heated by the stack on the right.

The exterior is two storeys high, with an asymmetrical front that has a single window on the first floor. This window is a 20th-century three-light diamond leaded casement. Below it, there is an early 17th-century reserve chamfered granite mullion three-light window. To the left of this window is a 20th-century part-glazed door. The interior was inaccessible during the survey, but it is likely to contain features such as a ceiling beam, fireplace, and possibly early roof timbers.
