Bottom House

Bottom House is a house dating from the 17th century, with possible traces of an earlier building. It was extended to the left in the early to mid-18th century and altered in the late 18th century and later. The structure is primarily brick, with some flint in the ground floor walls, and features old tile roofs along with rebuilt brick chimneys located between the right bays and on the left side.

The house has a low central part of one and a half bays, flanked by taller gabled bays, and a late 18th-century extension at the rear. The left bay consists of two storeys and an attic, featuring first and second floor band courses, with the upper band adorned with dentils. A 20th-century canted bay window is present on the ground floor, while the first floor has a three-light barred wooden casement with a gauged head, and the attic contains a two-light casement. There is a blocked doorway with a gauged head to the right.

The central part has a 20th-century barred wooden window on the ground floor and a recessed 20th-century door to the left. The right bay is also two storeys high, featuring a band course at the eaves level and three-light barred wooden casements with segmental heads. The 18th-century rear extension is constructed of vitreous header brick. Inside, there is some timbering in the cross walls of the central section, with braces on the left of centre that may be the upper parts of cruck blades, and additional timber framing in the right end wall. The left bay includes stop-chamfered spine beams.
