Description
End Cottage is a former pair of cottages, now combined into one, situated at right angles to the road. It dates from the 17th to 18th century and is constructed of coursed rubble stone with timber lintels over the openings and a thatched roof. The building has an L-shaped plan, with the left-hand bay projecting to the rear. There are brick stacks at the angle and on the right-hand gable. The cottage is one-and-a-half storeys high and consists of three bays. The windows are paired casements featuring single horizontal glazing bars, with three in the thatch and three on the ground floor, along with an additional cross window to the right. A modern door is located in a gabled weatherboarded porch between the left-hand bays. The roof is hipped to the left and half-hipped to the rear.
