Description
No. 4 Church Lane is a cottage dating from the late 17th century and 18th century, with 20th-century alterations and an extension. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and features a thatched roof with a brick ridge stack. The cottage is one storey high with an attic and has a one-window range. It was likely originally built as a one-unit cottage, with a one-unit extension added to the right in the 18th century.
The front includes a 20th-century door to the left with a wooden lintel, a 2-light casement window to the ground floor left of centre, and a similar 3-light window to the right, both with wooden lintels. There is a 2-light casement window in the first floor's eyebrow dormer. A straight joint is visible at the centre, with ironstone quoins to the left of the joint. The rear features a 20th-century extension.
Inside, the older part of the cottage has an ogee-stop-chamfered spine beam, several original ogee-stop-chamfered joists, and an open fireplace with a chamfered bressumer. The roof of this section is an old common rafter type.
