27, Greenway

No 27 is a cottage located on Greenway, dating from the late 16th to early 17th century. It was enlarged and faced in brick in the early 18th century. The structure features cob facing with a brick and rubble plinth, blue lias, and a brick gable end on the north side. The roof is thatched with a hipped south side and has a pantiled rear wing. The building originally had a two-cell plan that was enlarged to three cells, with an outshot at the rear. It stands one and a half storeys high and has two eyebrow dormers with two-light windows set into the exposed cob wall. The ground floor has many-paned two-light casements with keystones. Access is provided through a projecting two-bay linhay with a pantiled roof, likely added in the late 19th century, featuring a studded plank door. The interior, partially visible, includes a left-hand room with an axial beam that is chamfered with step and run-out stops, and a 20th-century grate. The left return gable end displays dogtooth moulding in brick. Overall, the cottage has a remarkably unaltered early 18th-century frontage and is considered one of the prettiest cottages in this part of Somerset.
