studding to The Cottage and Tudor Stores; projecting gabled bay-
window above C20 shop front of Tudor Stores. Scattered C19 and C20
casement fenestration. Projecting gable end of Britannia Cottage
to right with single-window casement fenestration; doorway to left

rubble and C19 fenestration including hipped-roofed porch and bay
window. Projecting gable end of south cross wing has C20
casements, segmental-arched to attic. North end: timber framed
gable end of main range to right, jettied at attic and formerly at
upper floor level with moulded bressumers. Ground floor rebuilt in
rubble limestone with casement having timber lintel. Small framed
upper floor; close studded attic, each with single casement.
Lean-to addition to left. Rear: The Cottage has parapet-gabled
rear wing in very large dressed limestone, possibly C15; later
fenestration, blocked attic opening with splayed sides appears
original. C17 lateral chimney stack to south side of wing.
Various lean-to additions to Tudor Stores, Britannia Cottage and
adjoining house. Early rubble masonry to rear of main range.
Interior of The Cottage has complete timber framing including 4-
centred arched doorways. Britannia Cottage has remains of 5 cruck
trusses, one complete blade surviving. Some early painted
decoration survives on timberwork. House at south end is largely
early C19 rebuilding but may have some earlier structure.
