Description
Cross Park Cottage is a small house dating to around the late 17th century, with a 20th-century addition. It is constructed of rendered cob walls and has a thatched roof, hipped to the left and gabled to the right. A projecting stack of rendered rubble with a brick shaft stands at the right gable end, and another brick stack is located to the left of the centre. The original plan comprised three rooms; the left-hand room may have initially served as an outbuilding. The central room features a heating stack at the left end, while the right-hand room has a gable-end fireplace. An outshut was added to the rear in the early 20th century. The exterior has an asymmetrical three-window front with 20th-century two-light casement windows and a single-light window on the ground floor to the left. A 20th-century lean-to glazed porch with a part-glazed door sits to the right of the centre, and a 19th-century plank door leads into the left-hand room. The ground floor interior contains no visible early features, although the pegged roof trusses are likely from the 18th century.
