Description
This building is a cottage and byre located east of Pedams Oak Farmhouse, dated 1716 on the door jamb. It is constructed of sandstone rubble with millstone grit quoins and tooled ashlar dressings, topped with a stone-flagged roof. The structure has two storeys and consists of four bays. The two-bay house on the left features a central pent one-storey porch, with a wooden lintel over an empty door on the right side. The inner door has a tooled stone surround, and similar surrounds are present on nearly-square windows, which have block jambs and a projecting stone sill on the first floor to the right. The two-bay byre has a central boarded door set in long-and-short block jambs, with the left side inscribed with "WG/1716" and the right side with "JG". The first floor of the byre includes two vent slits and a blocked door on the right. At the time of the survey, the building was empty and derelict.
