Description

Church Cottage is a 16th-century building that has been significantly extended. It is constructed of red brick and features a modern plain tile roof. The front of the cottage is single storey, with a central depressed arched door flanked by windows that have cambered heads. There is a modern timber porch at the entrance. The east end of the cottage has paired octagonal chimneys, while the west end has a single chimney. On the west end wall, there are two single light windows with cambered heads. The interior boasts heavy timbering. The original rear wing is located on the west side, and there is a 20th-century two-storey addition on the east side.
