Description
Pennywick Cottage is a late 17th-century cottage located on the north side of Badby Bunkers Hill. It is constructed from coursed ironstone rubble and features a 20th-century plain-tile roof with 20th-century brick end stacks. The cottage has a three-unit through-passage plan and is two stories high with a three-window range. The entrance consists of a part-glazed plank door that has a wooden surround and timber lintel, flanked by buttresses that support a stone hood. The windows are two-light casements with timber lintels on both the ground and first floors, with a gabled half-dormer above the right window on the first floor. Inside, the cottage includes a stone-flagged passage, chamfered spine beams, and an open fireplace featuring a chamfered bressumer and a bread oven.
