Honeycott

Honeycott is a house that was originally a farmhouse, dating from the late 16th century or early 17th century, and possibly has late medieval origins. The building features mostly rendered cob and stone rubble walls and has a gable-ended asbestos slate roof. There is a projecting rubble stack at the left gable end with a brick shaft, an axial brick stack, and a projecting stone stack at the right gable end, which includes dripmoulds and a brick shaft. The layout consists of a three-room and through passage plan, with the lower end located to the left. There is a 19th-century rear outshut and a 20th-century addition at the right-hand end.

The exterior is two storeys high and presents an asymmetrical front with three windows, featuring late 20th-century two-light small-paned casements. There are 20th-century glazed doors to the left and right of the centre, along with a one-storey 20th-century addition at the right-hand end. Inside, the house has heavy chamfered ceiling beams and an open fireplace in the right-hand room with a timber lintel. A plank and muntin screen separates the right-hand room from the central room. Jointed crucks are noted in the house, but their exact form or date could not be determined due to lack of access.
