Description
Tollemache Cottages are a pair of cottages from the Peckforton Estates, built around 1870. They are constructed of red brick with a tiled roof and stand two storeys high, with each cottage having one bay. Each gable features a single-storey lean-to section that houses the front doors. The boarded doors are set in Tudor-arched openings, designed with vertical panels created by cover fillets and adorned with false strap hinges. The first floor has 2-and-3-light cast-iron casement windows with hexagonal panes, located in gabled half-dormers that include finials and timber infilling. The main gables, on the east and west sides, also have finials. A square central chimney stack has diagonally set individual flues and is positioned above a weathered stone ridge level band.
