Chorley Bank Cottage

Chorley Bank Cottage is an early 19th-century cottage constructed of red brick with a slate roof. It is a single-storey building with an attic and features two bays. The windows are chamfered mullion and transom St George's Cross style, with one window having a metal opening light. Each window has three-course deep brick label moulds with seven-course drops. The door has a chamfered muntin, creating two full-height panels, and is set in a heavy frame with a pitched door hood supported by shaped wood brackets. The hood conceals a label mould. The cottage has an eaves band and a wide plastered soffit, along with wide boarded verge soffits and a narrow scallop-edged barge board. Gable-end stacks feature diagonal flues, and there is a full-length rear lean-to with a cast-iron lattice casement window.

Inside, the cottage has exposed softwood ceiling joists, a straight flight of steep stairs, wide boarded ledged and battened doors, and wide floorboards with exposed purlins. The lean-to includes a brick oven and wash-copper, as well as a shallow brown moulded earthenware slopstone sink. The ground floors are finished with red and blue tiles, and there is a cast iron grate. This property is part of the Cholmondeley Estate.
