Description
11 Church Street is a house that was formerly two cottages, dating from the 17th to 19th centuries. It features painted render over rubblestone at the front, with rubblestone on the sides, and has a plain tile roof with brick stacks at the gable ends and the rear right. The building has a two-unit central through-passage plan with a rear outshut and stands two storeys high with a three-window range. The right-of-centre door is set beneath a 19th-century gabled porch supported by brackets. There are 19th-century two-light casement windows at the eaves level, three-light windows at the outer ends on the ground floor, and a two-light window to the left of the door.
Inside, the presence of a staircase on each side indicates that the building was once two separate cottages. The ground-floor room to the right contains two axial beams, while the rear room has a former ovolo-moulded beam that has been repositioned over a restored beam; there is an open fire in the rear room with a newel stair to the right. The room to the left features an open fire at the left gable end, and a door at the rear left of the through-passage leads to stairs that ascend to the room above. The rear wall within the outshut curves to accommodate the stairs, and beneath these stairs, a cupboard has a plaster floor. The property also contains 17th to 19th-century planked doors.
