The Lot House And Garden Gate

The Lot House and garden gate is a building from the 17th and 18th centuries that has been modernized. It has an 'L'-shaped plan and stands two and a half storeys tall, constructed of coursed rubble with a Cotswold stone roof. The building features two chimneys made of ashlar with moulded capping and has one raking top dormer. On the first floor, there are four windows arranged in pairs, with the casements having two and three lights; the two right-hand windows have chamfered mouldings and mullions. The ground floor openings have been altered, with the two left-hand windows sharing a common label and having partly original jambs, while the right-hand windows have labels, one of which is a three-light mullioned window. A tented trellis porch with patterned trelliswork leads to a slightly pointed doorway surrounded by a stop chamfer. There is also a mullion window on the left-hand return. Inside, there is a baffle entry, with one beam featuring ovolo moulding and another displaying a form of ridge-stop. The front garden is adorned with a pretty cast iron gate.
