Description
Anderdons Farm Cottage is a small house dating from the early 16th century, with alterations made in the mid-18th century. The left bay features a timber frame with brick infill, and the left gable has a cruck truss. The right bay was rebuilt in the 18th century using red and vitreous brick with red quoins. The cottage has a half-hipped roof covered with 20th-century tiles and a central rebuilt brick chimney. It is two storeys tall and consists of two bays. The left bay has a barred horizontal sliding sash window on the first floor and an opening below. The ground floor of the right bay retains the remains of a paired barred wooden casement with a segmental head. There is a central lobby entry with a boarded door, and a small weatherboarded outbuilding is attached to the left.
Inside, the left bay contains original early 16th-century purlins and curved wind-braces, along with an inserted floor featuring a 17th-century stop-chamfered spine beam and joists. The central truss is mostly concealed but shows some evidence of arch-brace construction, and there is a winder stair aligned with the chimney.
