Ivy Cottage Keble Cottage Wadham Cottage

Ivy Cottage, Keble Cottage, and Wadham Cottage are a row of three houses that were formerly an inn, located in Southrop. The buildings date from the early to mid-17th century, with Keble Cottage being the earliest, followed by a later 17th-century addition for Wadham Cottage, and early 19th-century alterations and additions. The front is made of dressed freestone, while the sides and rear are constructed from random rubble limestone, featuring ashlar chimneys and a stone slate roof.

The two-storey structure has a parallel rear range to Keble Cottage. The front of the central part, Keble Cottage, displays two-window recessed chamfered mullioned casement fenestration, with a three-light window on the ground floor and a two-light window above, both adorned with hoodmoulds. There is a central doorway with a 20th-century door and a hipped roof porch. To the left, Wadham Cottage has been refronted in the early 19th century, showcasing three 12-pane sash windows on the ground floor and one upper floor casement window centrally above. The building features three ridge-mounted chimneys with moulded caps, while two tall chimneys indicate the ends of the original structure.

To the right, Ivy Cottage may have originally been two houses, with a doorway to the left of a single-window fenestration, all consisting of segmental arched small-paned casements; the left doorway now has a similar casement. This part has two ridge-mounted chimneys with plain caps. At the rear, the range behind Keble Cottage has chamfered mullioned fenestration, suggesting it may have formed a separate house at one time. There is a two-storey flat-roofed addition to the rear of Wadham Cottage from the 20th century, which is not of special interest. The inn, known as the Greyhound, was closed by 1891.
