Description

This cottage, located at the corner of Bridge Street and Briton Street Lane in Dunsford, is likely from the 18th century. It features whitewashed rendered cob on stone rubble footings and has a thatched roof that is hipped at the left end and gable-ended where it adjoins another building. The cottage has a small two-room layout and internal evidence suggests it was once a single house with Dymond Cottage, which is adjacent to the west.

The building is two storeys high with an asymmetrical two-window front. The thatch eaves are eyebrowed over one of the first-floor windows. There is a 20th-century half-glazed front door on the left side and a 19th-century 16-pane sash window on both the ground and first floors. The rear elevation features a gabled dormer with eyebrowed thatch eaves. Although the interior has not been inspected, it may contain interesting features.

The cottage is situated prominently at the junction of Bridge Street and Briton Street Lane, and a tall thatched cob wall extends from the east wall down Briton Street Lane, which is included in the listing. This makes it an attractive cottage in the center of Dunsford village.
