Description
Brewery Cottages, possibly the former brewery of the demolished Lambton Hall, is now divided into two dwellings. It likely dates from the early 17th century but underwent significant alterations around 1884. The building features squared rubble construction, a stone-flagged roof, and rebuilt buff-brick chimney stacks. It has a T-plan layout with a central gabled wing at right angles to the rear of the front range.
The long and low structure has two storeys and a four-bay front. It displays flush quoins and nine restored openings on the ground floor, including two replaced doors set in chamfered Tudor-arched surrounds. There are two-light windows beneath three-centred heads with chamfered centre mullions, arched lights, and replaced sashes. Above each door, there are single glazed quatrefoils. The front also features identical two-light windows in four gabled half dormers added around 1884. The steeply-pitched roof has coped gables, with a stack at the left end and two ridge stacks on the right.
The right return has chamfered-mullioned windows with one, three, and one lights on both floors. At the rear, there is a two-storey gabled wing with replaced sashes. There are 20th-century brick additions on the rear, which are not of special interest.
