Description

Rock Cut Cottage is a house, likely built in the early 19th century, constructed from bedrock and brick. It features three rooms situated beneath a sandstone cliff. On the left side, there is a brick wall that contains two segmental-headed windows, with an entrance also featuring a segmental head located between them. There is a hole for a metal flue on the right-hand side. The wall to the right of the bedrock has collapsed.
