Description

Spinney Farm Cottage is a house located on Main Street in Woodnewton, dating from the early 17th century and the 19th century. The building features regular coursed limestone with thatch and corrugated asbestos roofs. It was originally designed with a three-unit plan and is a single storey with an attic, presenting a three-window range. The cottage has 19th-century casement windows with wood lintels on the left and right sides, and an 8-paned unhorned sash window under a wood lintel on the far left. There are also two casement windows with eyebrow dormers on the left side and a central four-panelled, part-glazed door. Stone stacks are located at the ridge and end of the building. Attached to the left is a single-storey, one-window range from the 19th century, which features a large 19th-century window under a shallow stone arch and a 20th-century door under a similar head, all covered by a corrugated asbestos roof. This section was likely used as a shop. Inside, the cottage has an open fireplace with a bressumer and is noted for having a cruck truss.
