On left-hand side wall at first floor is possibly original stair window which is 2-light with square section wooden mullion, iron stanchion bars and 1 original leaded light. The door is now in the right-hand side wall to the left end and is a C19 plank door with a slate pentice roof over. Interior : remains little altered. The fireplace has a chamfered wooden lintel with no stops discernable. In the bedroom above is a small open fireplace with plain wooden lintel. Several probably original plank doors with strap hinges survive. The straight run staircase is probably C18; it has oak treads and along its length to its right is an odd arrangement of sloping wooden planks, reputedly for the purpose of rolling down the cider barrels from when this was a cider-house. This cottage retains its traditional character both internally and externally.
