Description
Park Cottage is a late 17th century house, dated 1695, that was converted in the mid-19th century into two cottages, which now form a single dwelling. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed stone and features a stone slate roof. It has two storeys and a gable entry with a depressed Tudor arched lintel that is inscribed with "R S M 1 6 9 5" and set within a tressure with a chamfered surround. Above this entry, there is a single arched light with sunken spandrels.
The south front has two square lights to the left of an inserted 19th-century doorway. Above this doorway, on the first floor, is a chamfered mullioned window with three lights. The second cell of the building features a four-light window and a two-light fire-window on the ground floor, with a three-light window above it on the first floor. There is a gable stack present.
Inside, the cottage has a scarf-jointed spine beam, evidence of a former bressumer, and an early 18th-century fireplace with a segmental arched lintel supported by corbelled jambs.
