Description

Willow Cottage is a house dating from the early 18th century, with an earlier core. It is constructed of painted brick and features a plain tile roof. The building is two stories tall with an attic and has a one-window range. The window on the ground floor is a 20th-century casement with louvre shutters, set under a brick segmental arch. There is a storey band and a dormer with a casement window above. To the left, there is a 20th-century door with moulded jambs, situated under a stone hood supported by chamfered wooden brackets. A bow window, which has a segmental arch, is partially blocked above the door, and there is also a storey band present.
