Watching brief and historic recording by R Poulton of SCAU and M Higgins of SCC during refurbishment and the construction of an extension to the cottage showed that the building formed the two central bays of a medieval open hall house, dated provisionally to between 1450 and 1520. The building retains evidence for storied ends but both have been lost.
