HAUGHLEY FIR TREE LANE, HAUGHLEY GREEN Pond Cottage and Sussex Cottage

GV II

Two houses: built as one in late C16, subdivided with alterations in early C19. Alterations of c.1980. Originally of 3-cell plan. 2 storeys. Timber framed and plastered. Concrete pantiled roof, once thatched; an axial chimney of early C19 gault brick. Mid and late C20 small-pane casements. Single storey C20 extensions at either end, containing entrance doors to both houses. Good quality exposed studding with diamond mullioned window evidence. Within the early C19 roof there remains an original roof structure, half-hipped at either end, and with a vestigial queenpost system. Pond Cottage contains the parlour cell; the original chimney between hall and parlour was removed in C19 and replaced by another in a central position between the cottages. Included despite C20 alterations because of C16 core, and as an interesting example of the subdivision of an earlier house into cottages in C19.
