Description

The Cottage, unlisted, is attached to Clarence Cottage, but set back slightly from it. This is an attractive white painted building under an old tiled roof, and was probably two cottages initially, as it has end stacks. The building dates from the early 19th century, with a symmetrical placing of openings. The hipped roof has dentil eaves, and the front elevation has later gabled bay windows to each side of the door. These, together with the gabled porch, break up the façade. Two blocked windows can be seen in the right hand portion. Malt Cottage and Vine Leigh Cottage, Clarence Cottage, and The Cottage, all very different architecturally, form an coherent group tied together by the use of white paint and the orientation of ridge to road. A significant building within the Conservation Area of Well End (B1).
