Description

Ye Olde House at Home is a cottage dating from the late 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th century and minor changes in the mid-20th century. The building features brick-nogged timber-framing set on a low stone plinth, with painted brickwork and a clay tile roof. It has three bays and is one room deep, standing at 1½ storeys.

The front of the cottage has a brick gable on the left side, with a boarded door accessed by one step. There is a small pane horizontal window and a 2-light casement window, along with paired mid to late 20th-century windows. A brick lean-to gable is located against the right return. The structure shows no exposed bracing. Above, there are three gabled dormers, each featuring a 2-light casement window. A gable chimney is positioned at the left end on the ridge, with another chimney located one bay from the right. The left return gable has been rebuilt in brick and includes one pair of mid to late 19th-century purlins, along with a small lean-to projection at the ground floor on the left side of the gable. This building was once a licensed house, as noted by J.J.D. Cooke in "Churchdown through the Ages," published in 1939.
