Description

Keeper's Cottage is a folly dated 1581, with a further date of 1725, built for the Bamfylde family. The structure is made of coursed rubble with dressed quoins and features a slate roof with coped verges, one of which has a finial at its apex. The building is square in plan, two storeys high with an attic, and has a frontage of two bays. It includes 2-light moulded stone-mullioned windows, which are also found on the returns. The attic features unusual corbelled canted oriels, each with a 2-light stone-mullioned window on all faces. There is a door opening on the right return, framed in dressed stone and leading to a plank door. A 20th-century extension at the rear is not of special interest.
