Description
Blue Boar House is a cottage dated 1803, though it appears to be from the 18th century. It is constructed from coursed stone rubble and features a steeply pitched asbestos slate roof with gabled ends. The building has one storey and an attic, with a two-window range. The windows are modern casements, and there are modern gabled dormers. A modern central glazed door is also present. Brick stacks are located at the ends of the building. There is an early 19th-century addition at the west end, made of stone and featuring a lower pitched Collyweston stone roof. This addition has two storeys and one window. The building is included for its group value.
