Laburnum Cottage and Attached Store to Right

Laburnum Cottage and the attached store to its right is a farmhouse and stable building, dating from the mid-18th century. The building was altered in the 20th century and is now used as a house and store, owned separately. It is constructed of painted sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and quoins, and has Westmorland slate roofs with coped gables, kneelers, and gable stacks. The original plan was a double-depth, four-room layout with a single-unit side wing set back on the same axis. The building is two storeys high and has a 1+2+1 bay facade. The central block features a slightly off-centre doorway and two 12-pane sash windows on each floor, all with raised, plain surrounds. The set-back side wings are slightly lower. The left-hand wing has a 3-light casement window at ground floor and a top-hung casement window above. The right-hand wing, originally the stable, is unpainted and has a 12-pane fixed window at the first floor, a gable chimney, a waggon doorway in the gable wall, and a loft doorway in the rear wall, accessed by external steps. The rear of the central part of the building includes a former doorway that has been altered into a window, an inserted doorway to the second bay, and three other small windows. The interior includes a cellar under the right-hand half of the house.
