Description

Hollins Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century, with 20th-century additions. It is constructed of roughly dressed stone in varying course thicknesses and features a graduated stone slate roof. The building has a total of four bays and two storeys, with the 20th-century additions located at the front left, rear, and left gable. The oldest sections, which are bays three and four, include stone quoins and feature two and four-light ground floor windows, as well as three and two-light first floor windows. All windows are fitted with double-chamfered cavetto-moulded mullions. Bays one and two were added slightly later and are partially hidden by a 20th-century porch. The first floor also has two and three-light windows similar to those below and includes quoins. There are two ridge chimney stacks with oversailing courses and water-tabling, and the rear left corner of the cottage is canted.
