Full Description
Listed as a 19th century building but documents record the presence of a building on the site in 1474 and an episode of the BBC TV series 'The House Detectives' speculated on Mulberry Cottage being a 15th century medieval longhouse, substantially altered and expanded in the 16th, 18th and 19th centuries.
