Description

This Grade II Listed 15th century two-bedroom cottage is nestled at the end of a small row of cottages, set back from the road, and features a garage and parking. The property is believed to have originated as a standalone house in 1450, with Elizabethan chimneys and an inglenook fireplace added possibly in the 16th century. The external walls were bricked from the ground floor to the first floor level during this time. The cottage was later converted into workmen's cottages during the Victorian era, and underwent significant renovations in the early 1990s, which involved restoring the original roof, opening up the inglenook fireplaces, and installing new damp-proofing measures. The property retains many of its original features, including the Elizabethan chimneys and inglenook fireplace, and offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern comforts.
