Description

Wheatclose Cottage is a 17th-century house located on Mill Lane in Scotsgrove. The building is constructed of witchert, which is colourwashed and rendered on a rubblestone plinth, with the west gable elevation made of painted brick. It features timber-framed gables with brick infill and has a half-hipped thatched roof. The cottage has three bays and is one and a half storeys tall. The left-hand bays of the street front each contain two-light leaded casements, while the right-hand bay has a modern one-light leaded casement. There are leaded casements in the dormers of the left-hand bays, with two lights in the left dormer and three in the centre. A west stack is situated between the right-hand bays. At the rear, there are two lean-tos with thatch roofs that slope down like catslides, and the entrance is located in the west lean-to.
