Description

Little Thatch is a cottage that dates from the late 17th to 18th century and has been altered over time. The left gable wall and the upper right gable feature exposed timber framing, while the front has been rebuilt in whitewashed brick during the 19th century. The cottage has a half-hipped thatch roof with a centrally located rebuilt brick chimney. It stands at 1½ storeys and consists of 2 bays. The windows are leaded, with three-light windows featuring segmental heads on the ground floor and a two-light window in the thatch on the first floor to the right. There is a boarded door located to the right of the center within a gabled trellis porch. Additionally, there are lean-to extensions at the rear.
