Clapper Cottage

Clapper Cottage is a small house dating from the late 17th century. It is constructed of stone rubble with a whitewashed front and features a thatched roof with gabled ends and eyebrow eaves, which may have been raised. The cottage has projecting stone rubble chimney stacks at the gable ends, with the south-west end rendered. Originally, it likely had a two-room and through passage plan and was built as a single storey with an attic. The building is now two storeys high and has a four-window range, featuring 19th and 20th century casements with glazing bars. There is a small attic window in the north-east gable end. A slated hood covers the centre window, which was formerly a doorway, and the adjacent glazed door to the left of centre. Inside, the ceiling beams have been replaced, but there is a chamfered timber fireplace lintel at the north-east end.
