Description

South View is a small house dating from the early 18th century. It features rendered cob and rubble walls and has a gable-ended thatch roof with two brick end stacks. The house has a two-room plan, with both rooms heated by the end stacks and a central entrance leading into the hall.

The exterior is two storeys high with a regular three-window front. The two first-floor left-hand windows are 19th-century three and two-light casements, while the other windows are 20th-century three-light casements. There is a central 20th-century lean-to that includes a part-glazed door on the left side.

Inside, there is an open fireplace with a plain wooden lintel. The roof is likely from the 19th century, featuring straight principals that rest on the wall-plate.
