Description
Dower House Cottage and its attached outbuildings date from the 17th century, with later alterations and mid-19th century additions. The cottage is constructed of rubble stone with flush quoins, while the outbuildings include a red brick addition. The roof is steeply pitched, covered in red clay tiles with a brick ridge stack on the house, and blue tiles with a dentilled eaves band on the outbuildings.
The cottage is a single storey plus attics and features three bays: two to the north made of stone rubble and one to the south of red brick. The 20th-century glazed door is flanked by leaded 2-light casements, and there is an iron casement window below a plain stone lintel to the south. Above, three raking dormers contain 2-light horizontal sliding glazing bar sashes, with the northern dormer having brick infill from an earlier window below.
To the south, the mid-19th century single storey outbuilding has a segment-headed doorcase with a plank door, a single light metal window, and three small adjoining glazing bar sashes beneath a plain stone lintel to the south.
