Description
St. Mary's Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, which has been altered and extended in the early 19th century. It features a timber frame with whitewashed brick and plaster infill, while the ground floor is mostly rebuilt in whitewashed brick. The cottage has a thatched roof that is hipped to the left over a single-storey extension. A rebuilt brick chimney is positioned between the right bays. The building is 1½ storeys high and consists of three bays. It has irregular 2 and 3-light barred wooden casements, with three on the first floor of the left bays above the eaves, and white-painted weatherboarding in between. There is a boarded door to the left. The 19th-century extension to the right is made of whitewashed brick with dentil eaves and a tiled roof, and it features two paired wooden casements on the first floor.
