Description
Clough Meadow Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century that has been extensively repaired in the late 19th century. It is constructed of coursed dressed and squared stone with a tiled roof, featuring verge parapets with rounded copings and a ridge stack located to the right of the center. The cottage is two stories high with a front that has a two plus one window arrangement. The 19th-century chamfered mullioned windows are set in chamfered reveals, with a single-light window to the left and a two-light window in the center. There is an additional widely spaced window on the ground floor to the right, and the entrance is located at the rear. While the house displays all the characteristic stonework details of a 17th-century building, the crispness of the execution indicates that substantial repairs have been made. It is situated in a very attractive setting on a knoll above the valley floor.
