Description


ELY

04-APR-06 6

II
Cottage, forming half a pair. Circa 1700 with later additions from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. Brick construction, now rendered, with tiled roofs. It has a roughly L-shaped plan and is of one and a half storeys (single storey with attic above). Externally, the front elevation has an off-centre door opening with early 19th century wooden gothic surround, flanked by two window openings to the left and one to the right. The roof has a ridge chimney stack above the door opening, a dormer window immediately above each of the three ground floor windows and a parapet to the west gable. To the rear is a later gabled wing extending northwards into the backyard, which has a number of modern lean-to extensions; the rear extension is not of special interest. Windows and doors are modern replacements. Internally, the original cottage has a lobby entrance plan to the ground floor, which also has two-panel doors to cupboards dating from the 18th century, 19th century moulding to a door surround, and evidence of a brick floor. Stairs to the rear of the fireplace could date from the late 18th to early 19th century and may be a later configuration of an earlier stairs. A simple coupled rafter roof structure, which appears largely intact, dates from the late 17th or early 18th century; a ridge piece underneath the rafters may be a later addition to strengthen the roof.

Summary of Importance:
A building dating from circa 1700 which retains its lobby entrance plan and much original fabric. It forms half of a pair with number 4 which is already listed.
