Description
Cobblers Cottage is a house that was divided and dates from the mid-17th century, with a possible addition from the 18th century. It features a timber frame with painted brick nogging set on a painted coursed sandstone rubble plinth. The building has been partly rebuilt and extended using sandstone rubble and brick, topped with a plain tile roof. The structure has a T-plan layout, likely consisting of two framed bays with a projecting gabled cross-wing to the left and an 18th-century addition to the right.
The framing consists of square panels, with three sections from the sole plate to the wall plate, long straight tension braces, and closely spaced uprights with a middle rail. The roof structure includes a collar and tie-beam truss with queen struts and v-struts in the gable of the cross-wing. The cottage is one storey with an attic, featuring two large 20th-century gabled eaves dormers. The left dormer has a 20th-century two-light leaded casement, while the right has a 20th-century two-light metal casement. There is a brick stack in front of the ridge, off-centre to the left, and an integral brick end stack to the right.
On the right side of the cottage, there are four windows with late 19th-century and 20th-century two-, three-, and four-light wooden casements. A lean-to porch is located in the angle of the cross-wing, off-centre to the left, featuring a boarded door in the return wall of the cross-wing. The left cross-wing includes a leaded 20th-century three-light attic casement and a ground-floor leaded four-light wooden casement. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
