Description

Rubble cottage of one-and-a-half storeys with renewed slate roof and pebble-dashed front. Projecting gabled end chimney to R (facing road) with rendered stack and plain cornice band; modern chimney at L, on the NE corner. Irregular 2-window front with central entrance below an early C20 conical porch hood of metal; supporting scrolled iron brackets. Original stopped-chamfered, oak door frame with boarded plank door. C20 2-pane casement windows flanking entrance and further, similar windows to 2 gabled brick dormers above; leaded glazing to those to the R. The roof level has been raised, probably in the C19 (evidence on the W gable). C19 recessed 12-pane sash window to E gable with modern window above. Second-quarter C18 extension to rear, altered C19 and forming an L with the primary range. 12-pane sash window as before to eastern return of this, contained within a gabled dormer with modern bargeboards.

A single-storey modern porch extension connects the cottage with a former barn immediately to the E, now part of the house. Single-storey, of whitened rubble and with modern slated roof. Window to long S side, and 2 modern timber-clad gabled dormers to each of long sides; modern glazing throughout. Modern glazed door to E gable with modern window above. This was formerly a loading bay and has an exposed timber lintel with wooden hoist beam.

Beamed ceiling to ground-floor with rough-chamfered beams and plain hewn joists; large fireplace to R (former hall) with oak bressummer. Mortising to the underside of the main beam to the L of the door shows the position of a former post-and-panel partition, recorded 1966 and since removed. Raised and fielded second-quarter C18 panelled door to first-floor leading into rear section. 3-bay roof to primary block with collar trusses including a pair of upper crucks to the centre. Modern roof to former barn section.
