By law, the definition of a listed building includes the entire building (i) and any structure or object that is fixed to the said building and ancillary to it and (ii) any other structure or object that forms part of the land and has done so since before 1 July 1948, and was within the curtilage of the building, and ancillary to it, on the date on which said building was first included in the list, or on 1 January 1969, whichever was later.

Exterior
History: The building is reputed to have been dated 1617 on an internal timber (now removed): the tradition of timber framing is consistent with a C17 date.
Exterior: Box framed in square panels with queen post truss to gable; render (possibly over wattle and daub) to panel infil; stone plinth. Corrugated iron roof over thatch some of which survives. Brick axial stack. Single storey and attic, a small 2-unit plan with central entrance. Plank doorway with lean-to porch hood, flanked by horizontally sliding sash windows with small panes. Single dormer in the roof has wide verges to gable, and a 2-light casement window. Small stone outshut to rear.
A remarkable survival of a very small vernacular cottage.
