Cottages on The Green in Collingham

One of many attractive brick cottages in Collingham

The Dutch gables on the left become increasingly common as one travels east into Lincolnshire

Looking across High Street to The Green. The GVIR postbox is shown in close up here http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3071173.

A late 19th century addition to the house. Listed Grade II, but for group value only.

This was more or less at the heart of what was originally the separate village of South Collingham. The cottage and wall at the back are detailed here http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3071188

The left hand cottage is called Corner Cottage, the right hand is Office Cottage, perhaps because it once served as an estate office to South Collingham House. Corner Cottage was built in two stages, as shown by the change in brickwork, towards the end of the 18th century. Office Cottage and its immediate neighbour date from the late 18th century, with the nearer smaller cottage being an early 19th century addition. Both buildings are Listed Grade II.

First listed as Grade II in 1984, the grade was subsequently uplifted to Grade II* when investigation of the interior identified "substantial remains of an aisled hall or barn, with arched braces and blackened timbers". The cottage dates back to the late 16th and late 17th centuries, the pantiled extension dating from the late 18th century. The boundary wall in coursed blue lias limestone is included in the listing.

A set of 18th century cottages remodelled in the 19th century when the dormer windows were added. In recent years it has been in use as offices. Listed Grade II to its group value.
