GV II

House, formerly 2 cottages. Probably C19. Creamwashed stone rubble; thatched roof
with a plain ridge, half-hipped at ends; axial stack.
Plan: Single depth range with an outshut and a central entrance, formerly a pair of
probably purpose-built cottages with left and right porches.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Symmetrical 4 window front with regular fenestration and a C20
shallow gabled central porch with a C20 door. The outer bays have 2-light casement
windows with glazing bars, with trefoil-headed lights below a square-headed lintel.
The other windows are 3-light casements with high transoms.
Interior: Not inspected.
In the centre of an outstanding estate village, the decision to creamwash the
exterior has made the house match the earlier creamwashed cob and thatch houses.
