Field Visit (10 June 2015)
NF 75881 36318 19th century cottage, listed as having a ‘muran thatch roof, secured with ropes and stone weights’. The thatch has since been removed and currently appears to be in the process of having a new roofing material installed. There is no sign of any thatching material remaining anywhere on site. The listing description for the building should be updated accordingly.
