Description
Wilma Cottage is an 18th-century cottage, altered subsequently. It is constructed of roughly-coursed rubble stone, with timber framing and brick to the first floor, and has thatched roofs with eyebrows, a slight hip to the street gable, and a brick stack to the far gable. The cottage is one-and-a-half storeys high and has two bays. The south side features a pair of casement windows, three to the ground floor with altered cambered stone heads, and two to the first floor. A 20th-century extension with a tiled roof occupies the far end of the south side, containing the entrance. The north side has a small central window and a leaded window to the upper left.
