Bridge Cottage

Bridge Cottage is a 16th-century thatched cottage in Flatford, East Bergholt, Suffolk, England. It has been a National Trust property since 1943 and a Grade II* listed building since 1955.[1][2] The National Trust market the property under the name "Flatford: Bridge Cottage".[3] The building is timber framed, but this is not evident from the outside as it is rendered.[1] The II* grading, unusual for an architecturally unremarkable cottage, "reflects the importance of the cottage as part of the Flatford Mill group and its significance in the work of John Constable".[1]

The property is located in the heart of Dedham Vale, a typical Suffolk rural landscape. It is noted as the location for works by John Constable, and presents an exhibition of his paintings.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
