Description

A pair of cottages dating from the early 18th century, located in Little Marsh, Marsh Gibbon. The cottages are constructed of rubble stone, with Rectory Cottage being whitewashed on the roadside. They have thatched roofs, with brick stacks to the gables and central point; the central stack is made of thin brick. Each cottage is a 1½-storey, 2-bay design, with upper-floor windows set into the thatch. Ground floor windows have cambered stone arches. Little Marsh Cottage, on the left, features paired casements, with wooden casements in the lower right and metal casements elsewhere. At the rear, there's an entry point, barred wooden casements to the ground floor, and two leaded dormers. A single-storey extension with a tiled roof projects from the gable. Rectory Cottage, on the right, has paired barred casements, the one in the lower right featuring a flat head. There is rear access. A 20th-century extension with a flat roof projects from the left half of Rectory Cottage, and another extension of whitewashed brick with a slate roof extends from the right gable.
