Description

Vigornia Cottage is an early 19th-century cottage that was extended in the later 19th century and altered in the 20th century. It is constructed of coursed squared ironstone with a pantile roof and brick end stacks. The cottage has a 2-unit plan and originally presented a 2-storey, 2-window front. A central 20th-century door is set within a segmental-arched brick head. There are tripartite sash windows to the ground and first floors on the left side, and 3-light casement windows to the ground and first floors on the right. The ground-floor casement windows have segmental-arched brick heads, while those to the first floor have wood lintels. A decorative brick eaves detail is present. A 2-storey, 1-window brick extension is situated to the left. The interior has not been inspected.
