Description

Whitestones Cottage is an 18th-century house, originally combined with a cowhouse. It is constructed from thinly-rendered sandstone rubble with millstone grit quoins, and has a stone-flagged roof. The front elevation, facing the road, is one storey with two bays. The left bay is blank, while the right bay features a small larder window with a hit-and-miss vent consisting of two panes, and a flat stone lintel above. The left return side has low rubble walls topped with flat coping stones, flanking four stone steps leading to a boarded door set under a rough stone lintel. A corbelled, semicircular oven projection centrally, with flat stone coping, has a row of throughstones directly above. The rear elevation has rough stone lintels over a partly-glazed ground-floor cowhouse door, and two 19th-century sash windows above. A chimney is located at the left end of the roof.
