DescriptionAnne Hathaway's Cottage (4961756384).jpg |
I had finally reached Anne Hathaway's Cottage on foot. Note I had no plans to go inside. Just get my shots and walk back to Stratford. Anne Hathaway's Cottage is run by The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. Here it is, I made it to Anne Hathaway's Cottage after all that walking. Looks like a nice place to visit. Anne Hathaway's Cottage is a Grade I listed building. On Cottage Lane. Farmhouse, now museum. C15 or earlier with C16 alterations; c1600 wing to left end and C17 wing to right end; left wing damaged by fire in 1969. Timber-frame with brick and plaster infill on limestone plinth; thatch roof, higher to left wing, with brick stacks. PLAN: 2-unit plan with through-passage, probably originally hall and 2-storey wing, with 2-window range to left end and narrower range to right end. EXTERIOR: single storey and attic. Coursed rubble plinth, higher to left end and to height of ground floor to right end. Entrance to through-passage and one to left wing, both with plank doors. Varied fenestration, mostly restored 2-light leaded casements; one canted oriel with hipped tile roof to left wing; 4 dormer windows, one an eyebrow dormer.

HISTORICAL NOTE: the birthplace of Anne Hathaway, 1556-1623, who married William Shakespeare in 1582, and the home of the Hathaway family from the C15 to 1892, when it was sold to the Trustees and Guardians of Shakespeare's Birthplace. It has been a place of marked literary and tourist interest from at least the mid C18, and is reputed to be the place of William and Anne's courtship; especially noted is the so-called 'courting settle' in the hall.
