Summary
This pretty cottage has only one storey. It is constructed from a timber frame with clay lump and has a thatched roof with an off-centre chimneystack. The majority of the present building dates to the 17th century but it seems likely that there is an earlier medieval core. The cottage has been laid out with a lobby entrance plan.
