Description
East Cottage is an 18th-century pair of single-storey, three-bay cottages with a 19th-century addition, situated on the south boundary of the churchyard, next to the churchyard gate. The cottages are adjacent and form a pair. They have gabled, full-height jams to their main south front. A low range is recessed on the west gable. The cottages are built of whitewashed rubble with painted ashlar margins. They feature sash windows, end stacks, and roofs covered with graded slates.
