Description
Woodland Cottage is a small house dating from the 17th century. It is timber-framed with plaster panels, and has whitewashed rubble stone walls with some brick in the gable end. A rubble stone chimney stack, partially brick, forms a wall between the left-hand bays. The roof is thatched and half-hipped. The house has one-and-a-half storeys and three bays. It features 20th-century wooden casement windows; a three-light casement is on the ground floor, and a paired casement is in the attic window, located under a thatch eyebrow in the central bay. A board door is set between the right-hand bays, with the thatch swept down to form a hood. A single casement window is located to the right. Inside, there is a large open fireplace with carved wooden brackets above the lintel. The house has group value.
