Description

Garden Cottage, garden wall, and gateway at Quenby Hall date from the 18th century, with part of the cottage from the 19th century and the gateway from the 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick and has a Welsh slate roof with a brick ridge and right end stacks. It is 1½ storeys high and features three 2-light casement windows and a 4-panelled door on the right. There is a 2-light dormer above. The right end has a 19th-century extension that is 2 storeys tall with a 3-light casement window. The left end has a 1-storey extension with a door and a 1-light window, and it extends left to a coursed rubble stone wall approximately 3 meters high. At the corner, this wall transitions to red brick with stone coping and continues around two sides of the walled garden. Part of the fourth side has a lower stone wall with a pair of stone gate piers and a wrought iron gate. Inside the cottage, there are stop-chamfered beams.
