Description
Druid Cottage is a house dating from the late 18th century or early 19th century, with later alterations. It is built of red brick, featuring some plastered timber-frame elements, and has a plain tiled roof. The building has a rectangular planned ridge stack and is two storeys high. The original symmetrical facade was altered around 1900. To the left, there is a rectangular planned bay window with a semi-hipped roof, and the main entrance is slightly advanced with a flat roof. The ground floor has two large horizontal sliding sash windows, and there are two similar windows on the first floor. The entrance features a six-panelled door. Inside, there is an original staircase and chimney piece.
