Description

This is a cottage attached to the east of Gibside, built in the mid-18th century with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It features roughly-dressed sandstone with dressed quoins and has a pantiled roof with a brick stack. The cottage is two stories high with a three-bay front. The central bay has a late 20th-century part-glazed door set beneath a tooled-and-margined lintel. To the left of the door is a late 20th-century casement window, and to the right is a 12-pane horizontal sliding sash window, with a small stone head inserted above the doorway. The first floor has a blank central bay flanked by two 12-pane horizontal sliding sash windows. At the rear, there is a single-storey outshut. The roof is steeply pitched with a rebuilt stack on the right gable. The house attached to the left is not of special interest.
