Miller's Cottage at Ashton Mill
GV
II
Cottage. Probably early C17. Whitewashed rendered cob and stone rubble; thatched
roof, gabled at right end, left cross wing half-hipped to front and rear; large
projecting end stack to cross wing with very tall chimney shaft, internal stack to
front end of cross wing, stack to outshut.
Plan: Not entirely clear as interior not inspected at time of survey (1986) but
appears to be single depth, 2 rooms wide, the left hand room heated by the projecting
stack roofed at right angles to the right hand room which has a rear outshut with a
catslide roof. Interior said to be altered in the late C20 following a flood: ground
floor ceilings raised.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 1 window front; roof half hipped to the front at
the left and eaves thatch eyebrowed over a C19 2-light timber casement with glazing
bars to the right. Front door to left with a C20 thatched porch carried on posts
with a stone rubble plinth; 2-light C20 timber casement with glazing bars to ground
floor right. The left return (west), visible from the Chudleigh Road across the
River Teign is very picturesque with the half-hipped roof to the right of the
projecting stack and the thatched catslide of the outshut to the left. A single-
storey slate-roofed office with a rear lean-to adjoins the cottage at the right end.
Interior: not inspected but said to retain one roof truss with curved principals,
probably a jointed cruck.
An attractive irregular thatched cottage forming a group with the mill.
