Description
Spring Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with extensions and partial rebuilding in the 19th century. The original two bays feature whitewashed render, likely over a timber frame, and a whitewashed rubble stone plinth, while the right bay is constructed of whitewashed brick. The thatched roof is complemented by a thin brick chimney stack with a pilaster between the right-hand bays. The building is 1½ storeys high and consists of three bays. The ground floor of the right-hand bay has a bow window with barred casements, while the other bays have 19th-century three-light casements. The first-floor windows are adorned with thatch eyebrows, and all windows have scalloped lead fringes below the sills. The ground floor windows also feature ornamental wooden blind boxes.
A half-glazed door is located between the left-hand bays, framed by a 19th-century wooden surround with a dentilled pediment supported by cut brackets with guttae. It has a gabled porch with lattice sides, a tiled roof, and ornamental bargeboards. The right gable displays a stone tablet dated H.T. 1693, carved with oak leaves and a hare. To the left, there is a large extension built around 1900, made of whitewashed rough cast with a tiled roof and tile-hanging on the left gable. This extension is two storeys high and consists of three bays, featuring barred wooden casements, a square projection on the ground floor left, and an elaborate door with a hood over flanking windows to the right.
