Description
Orchard Cottage is a 16th-century house located in Turville Village. It features a timber frame with whitewashed brick infill, although the ground floor has been rebuilt in whitewashed brick. The roof is covered with old tiles, and there is a narrow brick chimney on the left side. The house is 1½ storeys tall and consists of two bays.
On the ground floor, there is a 20th-century paired barred wooden casement window on the left and a similar metal casement window on the right. The upper storey has paired 20th-century casements set in gabled semi-dormers. An old boarded door is positioned off-centre to the left, sheltered by a gabled timber porch. There are also two single-storey extensions on either side, each with half-timbering.
At the rear, the cottage has older wooden casement windows, with those on the upper storey located below the eaves. Inside, the right bay features massive floor joists, while the left bay has a stop-chamfered spine beam and joists. The roof is supported by queen strut trusses, along with curved and ogee wind-braces.
