Description

Goosey Cottage is a 17th-century cottage located in Dinton-with-Ford and Boot Lane, Westlington Upton. The cottage is constructed of wattle and daub, colourwashed and rendered over a rubble stone plinth. It has a half-hipped thatched roof. The cottage is two bays wide and has one-and-a-half storeys, with a single-storey, two-bay thatched outbuilding to the east, now used as living space. The north front, which is the entrance front, has an outshot to the right bay, a central door within a porch positioned in front of a central chimney stack, creating a lobby entry plan. There are two ground-floor casement windows to the left bay, and a two-light casement in the outshot. The south front, which faces the garden, features ground-floor steel casement windows and two single-light eaves dormers. The interior features chamfered spine beams with run-out stops. A staircase is positioned behind the chimney stack.
