Rockey Cottage

Rockey Cottage is a cottage that dates from the late 17th century, with additions from the 18th and 19th centuries, and alterations made in the 20th century. It features plastered cob and rubble walls and a hipped thatch roof, with an axial brick stack on a stone base.

The original part of the cottage is at the center and likely follows a two-room plan, with a heated room to the right. An outbuilding was added on the left side in the 18th century, and a one-room addition was made at the right end, which later had a 19th-century outshut added.

The exterior is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical front with four windows of irregular heights. All windows are 20th-century two-light casements, except for the former outbuilding addition on the left, which has three fixed lights on the first floor. To the left of center, there is a large thatch doorhood over a 20th-century glazed door. There is also a 20th-century thatched roof porch on the right-hand addition, with a plank door behind it, and a garage door at the front of the right-hand lean-to.

Inside, the cottage has been somewhat altered in the 20th century but retains a chamfered wooden lintel over the fireplace and likely has insubstantial straight principal rafters from the 19th century.
