Description

Tye's Cottage is a detached cottage that dates from the mid-17th century, with later additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of limestone rubble, featuring a facade of early core coursed squared and dressed limestone. The roof is made of stone slate at the front and artificial stone slate at the rear. The original 17th-century core has a rectangular plan, with a 20th-century extension added in a similar style at the right gable end and a 19th-century extension at the left gable end.

The main body and the 20th-century extension create a triple-gabled facade. The 20th-century gable is lit by two-light steel casements, while the 17th-century gables are lit by three-light wooden casements. The ground floor is partially obscured by a 20th-century lean-to, which has a part-glazed door at the left-hand end and a glazed double door with horizontal glazing bars on the right. The single bay 19th-century extension on the left features a two-light casement with glazing bars in a segmental-headed surround on the ground floor, and a four-pane casement on the first floor.

Inside, the cottage includes an open fireplace with a bressumer and an inglenook seat, a spine beam with moulded stops, and stone flag flooring within the main 17th-century section.
