Description
The Cottage is a 17th-century cottage located on the south side of Frog Lane in Cuddington. It is constructed with wattle and cob on a rubble plinth, now colourwashed and rendered. The roof is thatched, with half-hipped sections and timber-framed gables containing plastered infill. The cottage has three bays and one storey, with an attic space. It features leaded casement windows; the left bay has a three-light window, while the other bays have two-light windows. There are two eyebrow dormers, each with three lights. A small two-light leaded casement window is found in each gable. The left gable incorporates a four-panel door. A stack constructed of old, thin bricks is located between the left-hand bays.
