Description

The Cottage is a building that may have originally been two separate dwellings. It dates from the late 18th century, with an early 19th-century extension. The structure is made of coursed and squared stone, with a brick extension and a stone flagged roof. It stands two storeys high, with the original part featuring a three-window range and the extension a single-window range.

The central doorway has a heavy stone lintel, with flanking windows that have been renewed in their original openings, featuring square cut mullions. To the right is a gabled porch extension that leads to an additional doorway. There is another doorway on the left that provides access to a separate unit. The right-hand bay was built in two phases of brickwork, with flat-arched heads above the windows on each floor, and a cast-iron plate set into the wall above the ground floor. The building has moulded timber guttering, and a staircase against the left-hand gable provides access to the upper storey, which is in separate occupation. There are brick axial and end wall stacks.
