Description

Fleet Cottage is a small house dating to 1745, as indicated by a stone tablet. It was built in the 18th century using vitreous brick with red brick dressings. The roof is tiled, with chimneys on each side. The house is two storeys high and has three bays of sash windows, featuring flat, gauged arches. The ground floor windows have no glazing bars. A modern brick porch, with a flush panel door and a simple hood, has been reset in the centre, where a blank panel displays the date tablet.
