Description

The Thatched Cottage is a 19th-century cottage located at the end of a row in Little Barrington Village. It is built of coursed squared and dressed limestone, topped with an artificial stone slate roof. A 20th-century stack imitates ashlar. The main body of the cottage is rectangular and set back from the rest of the row, with a later extension added to the right gable end. The cottage has one and a half storeys, with the ground floor featuring two 2-light wooden casements and the upper floor lit by a single 20th-century rendered 2-light eaves dormer. The single-storey extension on the right has a four-light steel casement. A part-glazed plank door from the 20th century is located to the left. All the casements include glazing bars, and there is a gable-end stack. The interior has not been inspected, and the cottage is included for its group value.
