Grade II. Former pair of cottages, now one at right-angles to road. C17-C18. Coursed rubble stone, timber lintels to openings, thatched roof. L-plan with left-hand bay projecting to rear. Brick stacks to angle and right hand gable. One-and-a-half storeys, three bays. Paired casements with single horizontal glazing bars, three in thatch, three to ground floor with additional cross window to right. Modern door in gabled weatherboarded porch between left-hand bays. Roof hipped to left and half-hipped to rear (B1).
Now known as 'Kingsmead'. A building certainly of the 17th century, and seemingly of higher status than other village cottages. It appears to be of 2-bay origin, extended by a further bay towards the roadperhaps for commercial use, in the 17th or early 18th century (B2).
