Description

It features red brick construction and a corrugated iron roof, which likely covers thatch, along with brick stacks at both ends. The cottage has one and a half storeys, with a three-light horizontal sliding sash window on either side of a central door, both topped with cambered lintels. The end gables also have a similar two-light sash window. This building is included for its group value.
