Description

Paulscroft Cottage is an 18th-century house built of coursed rubble with a triple Roman tile roof and coped verges on the right side, featuring a brick stack. The building has two storeys and consists of two bays, with 3-light casements that include glazing bars. There is a central door opening with a plank door. To the left, there is a late 19th-century addition with three bays, which is not considered of special interest. The cottage is included in the listing primarily as an unaltered example of a lesser 18th-century dwelling.
