GV II

House. Late C16/early C17 possibly with earlier origins.
Plastered cob; thatched roof with plain ridge, half-hipped at
left end, hipped at right end.
PLAN: 3-room and through-passage plan, higher end to the left;
hall heated by stack backing onto former passage, lower end
heated by front lateral stack. Later lean-tos built across
front elevation of higher end.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 2-window front, breaking
forward at the higher end. Modern front door into lean-to
which conceals good early C17 four-light ovolo-moulded
wood-mullioned window. Eaves thatch eyebrowed over similar
3-light window above. C20 one-light window to lower end.
4-window rear elevation, most of the windows reglazed with C20
diamond leaded casements. Front door modern but probably on
site of former passage.
INTERIOR: Hall has good chamfered stopped cross beams and
scratch moulded joists. Plainer crossbeams to lower end.
Roof: Apex inaccessible. The feet of the trusses visible on
the first floor are straight, suggesting a post-C16 date.
Cosy Cot was listed on 14.2.72.
