Description

SAMPFORD COURTENAY STICKLEPATH
SS 69 SW
12/212 The Dairy and adjoining
22.2.67 cottage to its east
GV II
Pair of cottages in row, originally one house. Early C16 with C17 additions,
altered probably in early C20. Rendered probably stone rubble walls. Thatch roof.
Axial stack with brick shaft.
Plan: originally one 3-room-and-through-passage plan house of which the hall and
inner room with rear wing comprise the dairy and the passage and lower end form the
adjoining cottage to the right. Originally had a small open hall - possibly with
central hearth although this cannot be confirmed without access to the roof space.
Over the inner room a chamber was jettied into the hall but again it is unclear if
this is an original feature or inserted. Hall stack backs onto passage. Rear wing
behind hall/inner room is probably early C17. The division into 2 cottages probably
took place in late C19 or early C20.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 3 window front, windows disposed towards left-and
right-hand ends. The dairy to the left has 2 window front of early C20 3-light
casements with a gabled C20 porch to left of centre and part-glazed door. Right-
hand cottage has late C19 4 pane sash on 1st floor and late C19 canted bay window
below. C20 part-glazed door to left.
Interior of the dairy has original shouldered-head wooden doorframe in partition at
higher end of hall, tongue and grove early C20 panelling may conceal an early plank
and muntin screen. Above this partition are internal jetty joists with rounded
ends. Rear wing has chamfered half beam with hollow step stops. No access to roof
space and no principal rafters visible on 1st floor.
