Description
Huntsman's Cottage is a 17th-century pair of cottages constructed with a timber frame and colourwashed brick infill, topped with an old tile roof. The roof is punctuated by two gabled dormers. A substantial brick stack, featuring raised angle quoins, rises from the centre. Originally displaying two entrances, the cottages now have three three-light casement windows on the ground floor, one small casement with old leaded glazing to the left of the door of number 48. Above, two three-light casement windows are present on the first floor, alongside a smaller two-light casement with old leaded glazing in the centre and two similar blocked windows on either side.
