Description
This is a cottage, likely dating back to the 17th century or earlier. It's constructed from local stone with dressings of Ham stone, all whitewashed, and has a thatched roof. Brick chimney stacks are located at the ends and between the rooms. Originally, the cottage had a three-room through-passage plan, but now features a single storey with attics. There are four bays, with a two-bay extension to the north. The west side has a hollow-chamfered mullioned window with rectangular leaded panes—four lights wide and with a label—in the first bay, and a similar window without a label in the second bay. A 20th-century porch of thatch and stone shelters a boarded door within a heavy frame in the third bay. Leaded casements are present in the lower portion of the fourth bay and the upper section of the first bay; the remaining windows are leaded steel set into the thatched roof. The north extension is tiled and has 20th-century casements. The interior, while not inspected, is reported to contain three jointed cruck trusses with posts, soot markings in the roof, some wattle and daub partitioning, stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops, and solid oak stairs.
