Description

The Well House is a cottage dating from the 16th or 17th century, constructed from coursed ironstone rubble with an artificial stone slate roof and flanking brick stacks. The building is two storeys high and has three bays. The central doorway features a wooden lintel and a 20th-century two-panel door. On either side of the doorway are three-light windows, also with wooden lintels and 20th-century wood casements. The central window on the first floor has two lights under a wooden lintel, with an original moulded wood mullion and an old iron casement. The flanking first-floor windows are two-light, with wooden lintels and 20th-century casements.

Inside, one cruck blade is exposed on the ground floor, while the first floor reveals two blades and tie beams. The ground floor room includes a chamfered spine beam and an open fireplace, which has been partly rebuilt in the 20th century and features a bread oven.
