Description

Fountain House is a detached cottage with origins in the 16th century, significantly altered in the early 20th century. It is constructed of roughly cut and squared local lias stone with a triple roll clay tiled roof and brick chimney stacks that have traditional baffle tops. The cottage is two storeys high and has three bays. It features metal casement windows with leaded lights, with three-light windows on the ground floor and two-light windows in small, pitched roofed dormers above. A 20th-century boarded door is set within a tiled open porch bay, and there is a more recent single-storey extension to the north gable.

Inside, the room on the left has a 4-panelled chamfered beam ceiling and a modified gable fireplace. The room on the right has transverse beams with run-out stops, and a north gable fireplace incorporating a brick oven. The roof structure features collar beam trusses.
