Additional Information
Newly Fitted Carpets To All Three Bedrooms And Landing. Vaulted Ceilings To All Three Bedooms. Further Historical Information;We are advised that this property is one of the earliest constructed homes in Poulton le Fylde. Most of the dwellings in the 1600s would have been built with a thatched roof and we do believe that this would have been the case for this cottage. All of these early dwellings were built around the outskirts of the market place, and Higher and Lower Green would have been known simply as \"The Green,\" a place for the inhabitants livestock to graze. This historical information translates to the property, which has a feeling of history in each room, as well as being well proportioned living space and an ideal family home.
