4/15 Wedgewood Cottage -
- II
House, probably a former farmhouse of which the lower end has been demolished. Late medieval, altered late C16 or C17, with C20 additions at rear. Rendered stone or cob. Steeply pitched thatched roof, half-hipped to left, fully hipped to right. Plan consists of a cross-passage with single large room (probably the hall) to left; a lower room to right may have been demolished. 2 storeys (although the upper storey is almost certainly a later insertion). In the centre of the front wall a large projecting chimney-stack with set-off weathering courses and a tapered top, the latter having an added shaft above it. To right a doorway with chamfered round-headed durn frame and C20 single storeyed porch. 2 ground-storey windows of different heights to left of stack, one window on either side of it in second storey. All windows have C19 wood casements, those in second storey with small oblong panes. Plan consists of a cross-passage with single large room to left. Interior detail much altered, but stud-and-panel partition to left of passage retains one chamfered stud. Ground-storey room has chamfered ceiling-beam and chamfered lintel with step-stops. Roof has blackened timbers. 2 trusses with threaded purlins and ridge, the south-eastern truss retaining its cambered collar- beam. Hip rafter, many of the common rafters and some of the thatching spars remain. Both trusses show notches for former inserted partitions. The house has a dramatic appearance externally and forms the focal point of the village street.
