Description
Nos. 2 and 3 Buntham, also known as Bunthams Cottages, are two former cottages that were originally part of a terrace of four. They date back to the 18th century and are constructed from local stone rubble with a thatched roof and no chimney stack. The buildings are single storey with an attic and feature five bays with irregular window arrangements. The windows are two-light casements with horizontal glazing bars, except for the fourth bay which has a three-light window. The upper windows are set into the thatch, and the lower window in the second bay is located in what was formerly a doorway, with exposed timber lintels above. There is a 20th-century door situated between the second and third bays. The interior has not been seen.
