Description
Marwood Cottage is a keeper's lodge, now divided into two private houses, built around 1830 for Lord Barnard. The structure is made of coursed rubble with pecked quoins, and the roof features renewed stone flags, a stone ridge, and stone chimneys. Designed in the Tudor style, it is a single storey with a three-window range. The entrance to No. 1 is through a central porch on the east elevation, while No. 2 has a porch added to the rear on the left.
The east elevation displays a stopped label mould over a stone surround with hollow reveals leading to a diagonally boarded door. Two windows have renewed sashes set in stone surrounds beneath label moulds and an eaves band. The hipped roof of the porch connects to the hipped roof of the cottage, both featuring swept eaves. There are two corniced ridge chimneys.
The left return, facing the river, includes two-light stone-mullioned windows with plain renewed sashes in chamfered stone surrounds, also under stopped label moulds. The right return has an offshoot with a new door opening for No. 1, along with two windows that have flat stone lintels and projecting stone sills.
