Laundry Cottage On West Of Stableyard North Of Shawdon Hall

Laundry Cottage, located to the west of the stableyard north of Shawdon Hall, dates from the early 19th century. It is built of ashlar stone with tooled-and-margined dressings and features a Welsh slate roof. The cottage is a single storey with seven bays. The first and sixth bays each have a segmental-arched recess that contains a 12-pane sash window flanked by 8-pane sashes, all set above a sill band. In the second bay, there are half-glazed double doors beneath a round arch, surrounded by alternating vermiculate blocks. The building also has 12-pane sash windows, coped gables, and small stepped-and-corniced end stacks, along with two ridge stacks. A later link block to the south and an estate office to the north are not considered of special interest.
