Description

Corner Cottage is a 17th-century cottage, built in two phases. The right-hand half is timber-framed with whitewashed plaster and brick infill, and a whitewashed stone plinth. The left-hand half is of brick with a rubble stone gable end, both whitewashed. A weatherboarded extension runs along the rear of Main Street. The cottage has a thatched roof, half-hipped to the right, with brick stacks to the left gable and right of centre. It is a single-storey and attic building. The left half has a central door flanked by two paired leaded casement windows, all under the same lintel. The right half has two small casement windows to the left, one just below the thatch, and a paired leaded casement to the right. Similar leaded casement windows are in the gable end.
