Description

PAINSWICK HOLCOMBE
SO 81 SE
2/128
Cottage at Holcombe End
- II
Small detached cottage. C17, but much C19 and C20 work. Squared and coursed
limestone, concrete slates; one coped gable to saddle. Small two storey and
attic, very large external stack to north side, with a re-built ashlar shaft.
Entrance front has 2 over 2 + 1 over 3-light recessed chamfer stone mullioned
casements under stopped hoods; at first floor both windows under one mould.
South end has C20 openings and staircase to plank door at the first floor
level. The interior retains very large chamfered beams at ground and first
floor levels. Extensions to the north are not of special interest. It is
possible that this was a service building such as kitchen or bakery to an
earlier house on the site.
