Thatch, on the corner of Sandgate Lane, is early C17 and just neatly rethatched. The description at http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-398458-thatch-ottery-st-mary says "No windows to road" which doesn't seem to be strictly accurate. On the left is Farthings, also listed http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-398457-farthings-ottery-st-mary . Both cottages also appear in Image Sandgate Lane is a track carrying Ottery St Mary Footpath 31 down to the River Otter.
