Description
Claydon Cottage is a pair of cottages dating from the 17th century. They are constructed with a timber frame featuring diagonal braces and whitewashed brick infill, topped with a half-hipped thatch roof. Each cottage has a brick chimney, with the one on the right made of thin brick. The buildings are one and a half storeys tall and consist of four bays.
No. 41 has a barred wooden casement window on the ground floor to the left and three-light leaded casements to the right, with a leaded casement window in the thatch above. There is a board door to the right, and a whitewashed brick lean-to with a tiled roof and paired leaded casement window to the left.
No. 43 features 20th-century paired leaded casements on the ground floor and a leaded casement window in the thatch to the left, along with a single leaded staircase window to the left of center. The central door is also from the 20th century. Inside No. 43, there is a chamfered spine beam and a segmental arch leading to a rebuilt spiral staircase aligned with the chimney, along with a 20th-century extension at the rear.
