Description

Fox Hill Cottage is a house that dates back to the 17th century or earlier. The original structure is a timber-framed building with plaster infilling, topped with a tiled roof. It has two storeys and features casement windows. The central part of the house is original, while a window-bay has been added at each end later on. These additions are faced with stone rubble and have red brick dressings and quoins.
