Description
Bridge Cottage is a house from the mid to late 18th century, constructed of colourwashed brick with an old tile roof and flanking brick chimneys. The building is two storeys high and has two bays, featuring a first-floor band course and dentil eaves. The windows on the upper floor are three-light barred wooden casements, while the central entrance consists of an old two-panelled door with a modern glazed panel, framed in wood, and is sheltered by a slightly modern flat-roofed timber porch. The ground floor openings have segmental heads. At the rear, there is a gabled stair turret that includes some timber framing.
