Summary

The oldest part of Apple Cottage is partially timber framed, and probably dates to the 16th century. This section of the house was part of a large timber framed house, and had upper floors inserted in the 17th century. The main block of Apple Cottage dates from the 1950s. The majority of the timber framed building was demolished in about 1800, and some timbers seem to have been reused in Sunnyside, which dates mainly to the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
