Semi detached two storey cottage built in the late 18th Century. It consists of ground floor kitchen, living room and dining space, with Bathroom and 3 bedrooms to first floor.

An attached stable to the south elevation. This is an single open space with a loft floor, accessed via a modern timber ladder. There is a single door access to this space, along with a window alongside to the west elevation. There is evidence of a former door in the east (main street) elevation which has been removed and infilled with brickwork. To the northern end of the building and junction with attached Beech Cottage, there is a further double height store, referred to as ‘the apple loft’. This is a basic cold store at ground floor which was formerly double height but has since been split at first floor level to create a separate loft store at first floor over. A detached outbuilding, clearly originally built in brickwork but there is now only a small section of brick remaining with the majority now built in mismatched timber, with corrugated steel roof and is both overgrown with climbing plants and in a dilapidated state of repair and proposed to be demolished
