Tudor Cottage and Attached Railings

This is a 17th-century house, altered and extended in the early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with Ham Hill stone dressings to the ground-floor windows, and has a double Roman pantile roof with brick stacks to the gable ends. The house originally comprised two units, with a 19th-century rear wing added later. The front elevation has two storeys and a three-window range. The upper floor has wooden lintels to 19th-century casement windows at eaves level, a two-light window above the front door and a three-light window to either side. A brick course at eaves level contains two flat brick arches, possibly indicating the former location of windows. The front door is set in an early 19th-century gabled brick porch. The ground-floor windows are hollow-moulded with stone mullions and label moulds; the windows are three-light to the far left, two-light to the left of the door, three-light to the right, and a 20th-century two-light stone-mullioned window to the right. Inside, there are open fireplaces to the rear of the gable ends, notably an oak lintel above the fireplace on the right. A chamfered axial beam can be found on the ground floor. The roof was raised in the early 19th century. The house originally had two staircases in the front corners of the gable ends, but these were replaced with a central hall staircase in the 19th century. At the front and to the right is a low stone plinth supporting spearhead railings.
