Little Thatch, Thatched cottage and Grade II listed building in Quedgeley, England.
Little Thatch is a timber-framed cottage with brick infill and a thatched roof in Quedgeley, a village south of Gloucester. The building is Grade II listed, meaning it is protected as a structure of national historic interest.
The building traces back to the 14th century, when two single-story houses stood on this site. It was extended and altered several times over the following centuries, gradually taking on the form visible today.
Little Thatch became a pub and hotel in 1967, shifting from a private home to a place where people gather for meals and drinks. That mix of domestic character and public life is still easy to feel when you walk inside.
The property works as a hotel, so a visit is easiest if you stay overnight. It sits on Bristol Road in Quedgeley, which is straightforward to reach whether you are travelling by car or on foot from the village centre.
The west-facing side of the building still shows its original large timber-framed gabled dormers and a half-hipped gable wall with a brick chimney on the roof ridge. These features are easy to spot from the road and give a direct sense of how the cottage was first built.
