Hayes Cottage
II
Cottage. Circa mid C17, probably altered in early C18 and extended in late C20.
Plastered cob walls. Gabled ended thatch roof. 2 brick stacks, one at left gable
end and one axial stack which is late C20.
Plan: originally 2-room plan, entry into larger room to left heated by end stack,
with a small unheated service room to its right. The 1708 datestone over the front
door may refer to a modernisation. In the late C20 the house was extended at the
right-hand end, in a similar style and another stack added.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 3-window front of C20 1, 2 and 3-light
casements. C19 plank door to left of centre with inscribed stone above date 1708.
The C20 extension at the right-hand end is almost indistinguishable and has a glazed
porch at the front.
Interior: in the original part of the house the right-hand room has a chamfered
axial beam which rests at the left-hand end on a heavy granite post with chamfered
edges. Left-hand room has chamfered and hollow step-stopped ceiling beam. Open
fireplace with chamfered wooden lintel. Roof trusses are insubstantial straight
principals with lapped and pegged collars.
