Jasmine Cottage

Jasmine Cottage is a house situated on the west side of The Green in Bibury. It was likely built in the mid-to-late 17th century, with a re-fronting in the early 19th century. The front is constructed of coursed rubble limestone, while the sides and rear are of random rubble; brick chimneys rise from the roof, which is covered in stone slates. The two-storey house has an attic and incorporates a former stable and pigsty at the south end.

The front facade has a two-window arrangement. The windows are primarily 2-light chamfered mullioned casements with lead latticing, although a 3-light window is present on the ground floor to the left. A central doorway has a 6-panel door. Two chimneys are set into the ridge of the roof. The former stable has a catslide roof to the front, creating an outshut. A doorway with a 6-panel door is present, alongside a casement window to the left. A further Tudor arched doorway is located to the left. A small 19th-century casement window is found in the attic, and another in the former stable loft, supported by a timber lintel. The pigsty has a lean-to roof to the rear of the former stable; this roof is notable for its very large stone slates, the largest measuring approximately 4000mm x 2000mm.

Inside, large fireplaces are found in the two main rooms, with adjacent spiral staircases. The floors are of fine stone flag.
