Description

The Chantry is a cottage, likely originating in the 18th century, with 19th and 20th century alterations. It is constructed primarily of ham stone, cut and squared with ashlar dressings, and has a double Roman clay tile roof with coped gables and brick end chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and presents a three-bay facade on both its north and south sides. The north side features leaded casement windows with 2, 3, and 4 lights, beneath exposed timber lintels. It has a plain entrance door under a stone hood between the first and second bays, and a blocked doorway between the second and third bays. The south side incorporates hollow chamfer mullioned windows with rectangular leaded panes, although the window in the first bay is a 20th-century replacement. There is a half-glazed door under a flat stone hood supported on shaped corbel brackets. A 19th-century sculpted panel displaying the Troyte-Bullock arms is inset into the west gable. A matching two-storey outbuilding stands to the east. The interior has not been inspected.
