Pickerings Bridge Cottage

Pickerings Bridge Cottage is a handed pair of cottages, now converted into a house, dating from around 1850. The building has been slightly altered on the exterior during its conversion. It is constructed of Flemish bond brown brick with stone dressings and features a grey slate roof in the Jacobethan style. The cottage is two storeys high, with a central portion consisting of two rooms and projecting cross-gables at each end. The windows are mullioned 3-light iron casements with painted flush stone lintels and cills. The left opening of the central portion has a replaced glazed oak door with a sidescreen. Each cross-wing has a 2-light lattice casement window on the lower storey. The windows at the rear have been altered, although some remain in their original openings. The interior has not been inspected. These cottages were originally built for the keepers of Pickerings Lock, which has since been demolished, on the Weaver Navigation.
