Description
Keepers Cottage is a cottage that dates from the 17th century, with 20th century additions. It features a timber-frame construction with brick infill and a thatched roof. The building is oriented end on to the road and is 1½ storeys high, consisting of three bays with two additional 20th century bays added to the far end. At the road end of the third bay from the road, there is a top-glazed door with a flat hood. There are two 20th century two-light casement windows facing the road, along with smaller similar windows on the other side. Above the door, there are two two-light casements with eyebrow dormers. The roof is hipped, with a ridge piece and a stack positioned above the door.
