A quiet corner in Shitterton
A pair of thatch cottages, the semi-detached on the left is probably C18. Ahead is Honeycombe Cottage, many C18 additions, but originally a C16 3-bay open-hall house, whose hall was floored over and a chimney inserted circa 1600. Both are grade II listed.

Shitterton: thatched cottage and postbox
The Image stands outside an attractive thatched cottage in Shitterton village.
The name of Shitterton was embarrassing enough to the Ordnance Survey that it dropped the H on its maps and called it Sitterton about 20 years ago. I note from get-a-map that the 1:50,000 currently still refers to it as Sitterton but the 1:25,000 map has restored the H.
Update in March 2008: I notice that the H has now also been restored at the 1:50,000 scale as well!

Thatched Cob Wall
Cob walls consisting mainly of mud are frequently protected by a tiled roof to prevent water damage. It is more unusual to see then with a thatched roof such as this one in Shitterton. They are usually rendered with lime mortar. If they are patched with Portland cement mortar as this one had, the Portland mortar will detach eventually as it is too strong and inflexible as well as being waterproof and not allowing the wall to breathe.
