Flash Cottage

Flash Cottage is a farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, with a porch added in the early 18th century. It is built of coursed gritstone rubble and has a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three windows on the first floor. To the left of the centre is a gabled porch that has large quoins and a moulded quoined door surround. The porch includes the original chamfered quoined doorway, which holds a well-preserved 17th-century oak door. To the left of the porch is a 2-light casement window in a double-chamfered surround without mullions, topped with a hoodmould. To the right are two 3-light casements with altered surrounds, featuring a projecting sill and plain lintel, linked by a section of original dripmould. The first floor has three similar windows. The cottage also has two ashlar ridge stacks with moulded strings and cornices. There is a taller stable adjoining to the left and a lower barn with an asbestos roof adjoining to the right, which are not of special interest.
