Cottage. Early C17, altered in C19 and C20. Timber framed, plastered, roofed
with slate. Single range facing E with axial stack at left end, originally
external, now internal, and C19/20 stack to rear right. 2 storeys. C20 single-
storey lean-to extension with slate roof along full length of rear, and
projecting to right; C20 flat-roofed extension to left. 2-window range of C20

One original roof truss is preserved in the intermediate partition. Large

clothing and clay pipes were found in this stack, now in Colchester Museum and
in the possession of the owner. Shown as one of a line of buildings in a map of
