Full Description
3 March 1977. Visit.
Cottage-Ornee in Gothick style. Brick, coated in cement, now falling off. North and south gable walls have large pointed windows with glazing bars imitating intersected tracery. Windows on the east façade are also pointed, glazed with diamond-shaped leaded lights. Porch has a pointed arch with doors left and right. Large central rectangular chimney divided into four sections. Pantile roof. Dentilled cornice. Two rear extensions - one contemporary, one modern. Presumably a Stratton Strawless estate cottage and therefore dating to around 1800. Very poor condition.
E. Rose (NAU), 3 March 1977.
Under restoration 1978. Seen by E. Rose (NAU), 15 June 1978.
Internal walls being removed at north end.
Owner says it was called Turnpike Cottage and thinks it was a toll house. Norfolk Archaeological Research Group survey of north end - kitchen with bread oven and larder with cold slab. Possibility of north end being shortened in past.
