Thatched cottage at Wrangaton. Stands at the road junction near Wrangaton House. Formerly two or three cottages.
Two storeys. Information from then owner: the cottages are all stone except for the east wall which is cob. The front partly collapsed some years ago and was repaired with red brick. Owner faced it all with plaster to preserve the building which would otherwise have been condemned. The cottage contains a bread oven and an old oak beam.
In the garden behind the cottage there is a circular stone which owner believes was made for a cider press. There is also a stone drain which may have come from Wrangaton House. A large granite block, cut and squared, was dug up in the drain at Wrangaton House and now rests with the other objects.
