Description

No. 24 Park Road is a cottage built in 1936 by M.P. Reavell for the Fountains Abbey Settlers Society. It is constructed of brick, rendered and colourwashed cream, and features a late 20th-century concrete tile roof that replaced the original shingles, along with boarded dormers. The cottage has one storey plus attics and is symmetrical with two bays. It has a plinth and a central part-glazed door set in a raised panel, flanked by 12-pane sash windows. The gabled attic dormers contain 8-pane sashes and have cusped bargeboards. There are end stacks, and the left return displays a projecting stepped stack with a 12-pane sash window and an 8-pane attic sash to the right, an inserted door to the left, and plain bargeboards. The right return is similar but features only an attic window. All windows have tile sills. This cottage is listed for its historical interest as one of the few relatively unaltered houses from the 1930s Swarland Settlement. A flat-roofed rear extension is not considered of interest.
