Description
Park Cottages is a set of four estate cottages built around 1868 for Bisbrooke Hall. They are constructed from coursed limestone and ironstone rubble, finished in a rustic style, and topped with Collyweston slate roofs. The cottages feature decorative cusped bargeboards with pendants and stone chimneys that have pairs of chamfered shafts. The design has a rustic vernacular appearance with an irregular plan, consisting of one and a half storeys.
The south front has four bays, with the right bay gabled and projecting. Small off-set buttresses are present. The windows are wooden casements with horizontal glazing bars and Tudor hoodmoulds. The left bay includes a single light on the ground floor and a canted bay window in the gable end. The other bays contain two-light casements, with the gabled right bay featuring two on the ground floor. Two central upper windows have corbelled sills and are set in gabled semi-dormers. A lean-to porch in an L-shape shelters two doors located in the angle between the right bays, with additional porches on the right side and at the rear.
