Sarsden Cottage was built before 1900 and is a protected old building. Cobblers, another protected old building, is about a 1-minute walk away. The property also lies in the Cotswolds protected countryside and near Sarsden House park. The changes could affect the historic details of Sarsden Cottage and the area around nearby old buildings.
