Dairy Cottage

Dairy Cottage is a house built around 1806 by Joseph Badger of Sheffield, with 20th-century alterations and additions. It is constructed from coursed squared coal measures sandstone with ashlar dressings, featuring an end ashlar ridge stack and one 20th-century stack inserted through the roof slope. The roof is covered with Welsh slate. The building is single storey with an attic and has an octagonal main range with a pointed roof slope, along with an attached single bay that has a hipped roof. The main roof extends over the outer walls, supported by rustic columns, creating a stone-paved verandah. Each wall face has two-light casement windows beneath flat hoodmoulds, originally designed as mullioned windows. There is a single 20th-century gabled dormer in the attic with glazed cheeks and a slate roof. The cottage features Gothic arched doorways, with two on the north side, one of which is now blocked and has been converted into a casement window. The second doorway has a plank door, and there is a plain plank door at the rear. A 20th-century glazed door has been added to the east face of the octagonal range.
