Description

Gamekeeper's Cottage, located at Lower Lee, is a house from the mid 18th century that has been altered. It is built of sandstone rubble and features a slate roof. The cottage has two storeys and consists of four bays. The left-hand bay has modern windows with plain reveals. The second and third bays contain two-light flush chamfered mullioned windows on the ground floor, with similar windows above, although the mullions have been removed. The right-hand bay features a ground-floor window with plain reveals and a first-floor window with chamfered jambs and a plain lintel. There is a door between the second and third bays that has a cyma-moulded surround, while a door to the left of the right-hand bay has plain reveals. The cottage has chimneys located on the left-hand gable, to the left of the second bay, and to the left of the right-hand bay. The front wall of the adjoining farm building to the right is blank, but its south gable wall has a window with long-and-short jambs and a first-floor pitching door.
