Description

Goss Cottage is a house built in the mid to late 19th century for the Duke of Bedford, possibly designed by S. S. Teulon. It is constructed from hammer-dressed coursed limestone with freestone dressings and features a roof covered with Collyweston stone slates. The building has an ashlar ridge stack and end stacks with moulded courses. It consists of one storey and an attic. The front has two boarded doors with flat stone arches that are rounded at the corners to the jambs, although the right door has been replaced by a two-light window. There are four ground floor casement windows with chamfered reveals and ovolo moulded mullions, along with three dormer windows on the facade that have shaped barge boards.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
