Description

Templar Cottage is a cottage built from rubble stone, featuring a slate roof and a stone stack at the left end. It is one storey high with an attic, which includes one central 20th-century dormer and two windows below: a triple casement on the left and a pair of casements on the right. The windows have timber lintels. The entrance is located at the extreme left, beneath the upper floor of the adjoining Kemeys Cottage. To the right of the entry is a recessed porch that contains a massive 17th-century Tudor-arched oak doorway, which has a chamfered frame, broach stops, and an inset Tudor-arched head. The door itself is made of painted planks.

Inside, the main room features a fireplace that backs onto the entry, and opposite it is a fine post and plank partition. This room also includes a small room and stairs at the back. The fireplace is notable for its massive stone monolith chamfered piers and a chamfered beam, which houses a bread oven. There is a cupboard to the right of the fireplace. The inside of the stone doorframe to the left of the fireplace has a draw hole for a closing beam. The fireplace has chamfered beams above it, supported on corbels, and there are chamfered joists with broach stops that have been renewed by the fireplace. The partition consists of nine chamfered posts with diagonal stops, and there is a door at the right end with a renewed Tudor-arched head. The room behind the partition is divided into two by a similar short length of partition, and it has square cut joists. The roof features two trusses with morticed wall posts beneath and one added collar, along with double purlins.
