Burnside Cottage

Burnside Cottage is a former pair of railwaymen's cottages, now a single dwelling, built around 1840 and altered around 1980 for the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway Company. The building is constructed from squared stone with dressings and features a Welsh slate roof and dressed stone chimneys. It is a single-storey structure with six bays, a low plinth, and tooled quoins. The openings have raised chamfered surrounds, with a replaced door on the left flanked by replaced casements. An identical doorway on the right, which was also flanked by replaced casements, has been removed. The roof has coped gables and shaped kneelers, along with end and central ridge stacks that feature a roll-moulded band at ridge level and a chamfered top. The late 20th-century rear additions are not of special interest.
