Cottage. First-mentioned in parish records in 1675 according to the owners and the features are consistent with such a date. Interior rearranged circa 1960 and modernised again circa 1981. Plastered cob on stone rubble footings; original stack is cob topped with C19 and C20 brick, secondary brick stack topped with C20 brick; thatch roof and slate to outshots. 2-room plan cottage facing south. The left (western) room has the original end stack. The right room has a secondary end stack (probably C20) and was subdivided circa 1960 to provide an entrance hall and staircase. At the same time part of the rear outshots were brought into domestic use as the kitchen. The rest of the outshots now belong to Sunnybank Cottage (q.v.) which adjoins on the rear left corner. Main house is 2 storeys. Irregular front has 2 ground floor and 4 first floor windows. All are C19 casements with glazing bars and old glass except the C20 French window ground floor right behind contemporary conservatory with corrugated plastic roof. The first floor windows have thatch eyebrows over. Roof is gable-ended to left and half-hipped to right. The main door is C20 and now situated in the right end wall. Interior: the basic structure is original. Both rooms have soffit-chamfered and scroll-stopped crossbeams. The main (left) room fireplace is built of brick and the lintel is also soffit-chamfered with scroll stops. The 4-bay roof is carried on a series of A-frame trusses. Although the roofspace is inaccessible the large scantling of the exposed lower parts of the trusses and their well-squared corners indicates that they are original.
