Description

Chantry's Cottage is a small house dating from the late 17th century. It features rendered rubble walls and a thatched roof that is hipped to the left and half-hipped to the right, with an axial brick stack. The building has a two-room plan, with a direct entry into the right-hand heated room and a smaller unheated room to the left.

The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical front that has one window on the upper floor and two early 20th-century two-light casements on the ground floor. There is a 19th-century plank door located to the right of centre and a 19th-century rear outshut.

Inside, there is an open fireplace with granite jambs and a chamfered wooden lintel, along with a chamfered unstopped cross beam. The principal rafters are straight and insubstantial, likely dating from the late 18th or 19th century.
