Description

The northern cottage of the pair described in site 115128.This cottage has an oriel window lighting the first floor of the north cell, which may be original, there is no visible evidence of the walls being raised. It looks very attractive as approached from the main road, another reason for thinking Sir Thomas may have had it built like that. Outbuilding 2 is very important on this site, it has been a carpenter’s workshop for many years, and was listed as such in the 1842 Luccombe Tithe Apportionment.

Condition: good
