Garden

To the rear of the cottage is a pretty, part-walled south-west facing. A patio extends from the back of the cottage to a shaped lawn with a brick and flint boundary wall to the rear. There is an outside water tap.

Church Street is a quiet residential address in the centre of the town, so the principal shops and services are no more than a couple of minute’s walk from the property.
