Description
The Long Cottage and Bibury Cottage Antiques, located on the north side of the A433 in Bibury, is a late 18th-century building originally comprising two houses. It is now a house with a shop at the west end. The construction consists of coursed rubble limestone with ashlar chimneys and a stone slate roof. The building is two storeys with an attic and cellar, and an outbuilding links it with The Old Manse to the east.
The main front displays a scattered arrangement of leaded timber casement windows with flat stone arches, and mixed stone lintels to the upper floor. A single casement window replaces the original doorway on the right-hand side, with a corresponding timber-framed porch and glazed door to the left. A further doorway has been blocked on the left. There are three gabled dormers in the roof. Four ridge chimneys have moulded caps. A garden wall with a doorway connects to the shop to the left, and the shop has a lean-to roof. The west end is gabled and features a canted bay window to the ground floor, along with a shop window to the outbuilding. The rear of the building has minimal fenestration, except for a single-light window on the upper floor. The interior has not been inspected.
