Description

Ham Cottage, originally an outbuilding, is now a house. It features an ashlar front with coursed and squared rubble on the sides and brick on the gable face, topped by a double-Roman tiled roof. The ground floor has two-light stone-mullioned windows with transoms, fitted with 20th-century iron casements and square-paned leaded lights. The first floor has 20th-century reconstituted stone two-light mullioned windows. There are twin cambered-head door openings on the ground floor with 20th-century glazed doors, and a continuous stopped label at the first floor level. To the left, there is an attached brick and rubble wall with a freestone coping.
