Description
Cobblers Lodge is a house that was originally two cottages, built in 1686. It is constructed from rubble with sandstone dressings and has a slate roof. The building has two storeys, and its main facade faces away from the road.
The former east cottage features a four-light rebated and chamfered mullioned window at the east end, with a similar three-light window above it. To the left of this window is a former door that has been converted into a window, which has a plain surround. Above this is another window with a wooden lintel and plain reveals.
The west cottage, located at the west end of the facade, has a one-light window with a stone lintel and plain reveals on both the ground and first floors. To the right of this window is a doorway with plain jambs and a re-set shaped lintel. The west gable includes a doorway with plain reveals, while the east gable has a chimney. There is a second chimney located between the two former cottages. At the rear, there are three rebated and chamfered surrounds where the mullions have been removed.
Inside, the east room features a wide fireplace with intricate incised decoration on the lintel, which includes the date and initials 'WWE1686'. Additionally, there is a cobble-lined well under the floor that is visible through a plate glass panel.
