The Cottage round the Bend by ladymagpie

The Cottage round the Bend

Let's get back to the village walk, I'm not attempting that stile again until I've grown wings, hang on I'm a magpie, what am I on about.

Well when I moved into the village, many years ago, this was a little cottage on the outside of a sharp bend, but as you can see by the brickwork it's obviously eaten to many bricks and expanded a bit. I know the feeling but perhaps not bricks.

It seems to have doubled in size taking over the rear garden. Cleverly they have built a garden to the other side of this building, which due to the hill is level with the top floor, you can just see a shed on the middle right.

Perhaps I should change the title now to The House that's gone around the Bend".
A lovely looking and rather large "cottage" . but rather dark rooms in the back if below the ground lever of the garden ! -- yep !! gon round the bend !

Very nice construction

It’s a good match especially with the roof....I wonder if it’s an upside down house? Bedrooms at the bottom perhaps.....I would never fancy that but if you go out to the garden from the second floor it would make sense!

Beautiful stones work, they have done a great job of matching the stone and keeping to the style, it does look a little large for the size of property.

Beautiful stone house but too close to the street.

Unusual idea for a garden but as ever a great narrative

Interesting story. Looks like one would have to climb into the back garden. And here I thought only you'd gone around the bend.
