C20 thatched porch to right with part-glazed door. Leybrook to the right has a more regular 2 window front of 2-light C20 casements with a C20 plank door at the centre. At its left-hand end is a shallow sloping buttress. Interior of Lane Cottage has open fireplace in left-hand room with narrow chamfered wooden lintel and oven. There is no access to the roof-space but the feet of substantial straight principals with heavy purlins are visible on the 1st floor. Any surviving original internal features in Leybrook have been obscured by later modernisation.
