Description
Clift Cottage and Moonrakers are a pair of cottages located on Froglands Lane in Cheddar. They date from the 17th century, with some late 19th century exterior features. The cottages are constructed of random rubble and have a double-Roman tile roof, with stone rubble stacks, two of which are capped with brick. The buildings are two storeys high and feature a symmetrical arrangement of two bays on each side, with three-light casements that are predominantly from the late 19th century, all set under wooden lintels. There are two door openings with plank doors.
