Description

Martin's Cottage is a cottage that dates from the medieval period and the 17th century. It features a timber frame with a rubblestone west gable elevation and plinths, while the road front is colourwashed and rendered witchert. The cottage has a thatched roof and consists of two bays and one and a half storeys. On the ground floor, there are two two-light leaded casement windows facing the road. The right-hand bay includes a two-light eaves dormer, and there is a gable stack on the right side. The gable elevation has two small windows on the upper floor, situated on either side of the stack. The rear elevation exposes the timber framing with colourwashed plaster infill. Access is through a modern rear porch that has a hipped old tile roof. Inside, there is one cruck truss and chamfered and stopped spine beams.
