Boundary cottage, so named as it is half in the district of South Cambridgeshire, and the other half in East Cambridgeshire. So only half of it is in the parish of Carlton. Strangely the house between it and the Old Rose and Crown is also not in Carlton, as the parish boundary cuts it off diagonally.
