Description
Cold Hall Cottages is a house from the 17th century that has been altered in the 20th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof made of machine-made red clay tiles. The building has four bays facing southeast and features a 20th-century axial stack located one bay from the right end. There is a single-storey extension at the rear, which includes a lean-to porch with a slate roof in the right rear angle. The house is one storey high with attics and has three 20th-century casement windows, along with one additional casement in a gabled dormer. There are also two plain boarded doors from the 20th century. Architectural details include jowled posts, chamfered axial beams (one with lamb's tongue stops), and plain joists of horizontal section, most of which are plastered on the soffits. The original rebated floorboards and a clasped purlin roof are also notable features. At the time of the survey in September 1984, the house was functioning as two cottages but was in the process of being converted back into a single dwelling.
