Description
Lavender Cottage and Rosemary Cottage are two houses that have been divided, with origins dating back to the late 17th century and converted in the 20th century. They feature traditional gabled Cotswold architecture. The cottages are built from rubble and topped with a Cotswold stone roof, which has two sets of chimney stacks with four conjoined square shafts. The buildings are 1½ storeys high, showcasing two outer Cotswold gables and a central gabled dormer. They have two and three light mullioned windows, with a ground floor window on the right gable linked to the doorway by a common string, a feature typical of the late 17th century in this area. There are also two Tudor-arch doorways, with doors that have 17th century style applied mouldings. Additionally, there is an L-plan wing at the rear of Lavender Cottage, which has paired square stacks.
