Aveluy Corner Cottage Gable End

Aveluy Corner Cottage comprises three small houses, dating to the late 17th and early 18th centuries, with a circa 1800 bay added to the left and an early 19th-century projection to the front. The original section has a timber frame with brick infill to the rear, but was rebuilt in brick to the front. The bay to the left is constructed of flint with brick dressings. The projection is built with vitreous headers and red brick dressings, featuring offset eaves and a hipped roof. The roofs are of old tile, with a brick chimney positioned between the original left bays. The rear range is of one storey and an attic, while the projection is two storeys high. Windows are irregular barred wooden casements, with those to the first floor of the rear range set within gabled eaves-line dormers. The upper window of the left bay is a horizontal-sliding sash. The left bay has a top-lit flush-panelled door with a concrete hood; the third bay has an old board door. A six-panelled door to the projection has a moulded architrave frame, panelled pilasters, and a moulded cornice hood with a panelled soffit on shaped brackets, above a blind window. A small outbuilding attached to the right, originally a chair bodger’s shed, is timber framed with weatherboard cladding and a corrugated iron roof. This section has a board door and a three-light casement to the right, with the left bay rebuilt in 20th-century brick. The interior of the original left bay features a fireplace with a lintel dated W1776. Old board doors are present in the right bays, and tall queen strut trusses are found in the shed.
