Description
Dove Cottage, now incorporating the former Buckstone Cottage, is a late 17th-century building that has been altered and extended around 1840 and restored around 2000. It consists of two cottages that have been combined into a single house. The exterior is made of coursed gritstone with ashlar dressings and features stone slate roofs with two moulded stone gable stacks. The building is two storeys high.
The north facade includes the 17th-century cottage on the left, which has an off-centre modern doorway and a modern window to the right, along with a 5-light chamfered mullion window to the left. Above this, there is a single 2-light chamfered mullion window that is missing a mullion, and to the right, a 2-light late 18th-century flush mullion window. The original Dove Cottage section has a doorway on the right with a half-glazed door, a single glazing bar sash window to the right, and two glazing bar sash windows to the left. Above, to the left, there is a single 2-light sliding sash window with glazing bars.
The east front is rendered and features a 2-light window on the upper floor. The south facade of the original cottage on the right has an off-centre 17th-century chamfered stone door surround, flanked by single 2-light casements in chamfered stone surrounds that were extended in the late 18th century. Above, there are two smaller chamfered windows with a similar central window that was inserted around 2000. To the left, the early 19th-century cottage has a central doorway with flanking glazing bar sash windows and two similar sashes above.
Inside, the former 17th-century cottage on the east side retains original chamfered stone chimney-pieces on both the ground and first floors. The upper floor showcases an exposed 17th-century wooden roof structure that includes three complete roof trusses with passing purlins. Each truss features a crown post with arched braces connecting to ridge-pieces, as well as a large collar with arched principal rafters.
