Description
Chapel Cottage is an estate cottage built in the late 18th century. It features dressed stone construction and a Welsh slate roof. The building has two bays with pointed-arched windows on the garden side, framed in Victorian style. On the left side, there are pointed-arched windows with Y-tracery; one window is blocked, while the other includes a door leading to the clock tower. The west tower is square and has a castellated top above a moulded drip stone and cornice. There are late 18th-century clock faces on two sides of the tower, each with only one hand. Inside, the working machinery is still present. The tower is topped with a small lead spire and a vane. The entrance side features a Victorian porch and windows, along with a blocked doorway to the right of the porch. There have been early 20th-century alterations to the upper walls and the right side of the building. The basement is brick barrel-vaulted, likely used as a root store.
