heightened in brick with bread oven projection at left gable end. Small C20 brick
stack to rear right end.

at right end, which until early C20 was used as a lofted outbuilding.

casements, left side with 3 panes per light. Ground floor has 2 3-light casements,
left side with 2 panes per light to left of 4 panelled door, the upper 2 panels
glazed, with a small 2-light casement to right. Similar door with blocked loft door
above close to the angle of the coal-shed/scullery outshut with catslide thatched
roof which projects forward aat right end.
Interior. Fireplace to larger left-hand room probably concealed behind C20 grate. No
exposed ceiling beams. Exposed rough joists to right-hand room. Early C20 straight-
run staircase. It is said that there was originally direct entry into the left-hand
room.
Roof structure probably C18 with straight-pegged principals of light scantling with
waney rafters and purlins.
Eastcott is set well back from, and built at right angles to East Street. The garden
is enclosed by cob walls, the right-hand wall incorporating a single surviving bee-
