Description

Old Barn Cottage is a house with an attached barn, partially converted into a flat, dating to the 18th century with early 19th-century additions, and incorporating elements of a 17th- to early 18th-century building. The construction is a mix of colourwashed flint and brick, with timber framing to the front of the left bay and half-timbering to the gable of the third bay. The roof is tiled, with dentil eaves on the central bay of the house, and there are brick chimneys. The house is two storeys high and has three bays; the outer bays are gabled, with the centre bay having a hipped roof to the right. The left bay has a rebuilt front with a bow window to the left (formerly a shop window), a two-light leaded casement to the ground floor right, and a 20th-century sash and round window to the first floor. A first-floor band course runs along the left side, with a small, blocked square opening to the first floor. The centre bay features a three-light leaded oriel window on the ground floor, a paired wooden casement above, and a small paired leaded casement above a 20th-century door with a gabled porch. The right bay retains an original paired leaded casement to the ground floor, with a later three-light leaded casement above. The barn to the right has a weatherboarded gable and 20th-century cross windows. Inside the left wing, some original timber framing remains, including a heavy, stop-chamfered cross beam with one end on a bracket.
