Description
Saville Cottage is a house dating from the 17th to 18th century. It is timber framed and weatherboarded, with a roof made of handmade red clay tiles. The building is aligned approximately northeast to southwest and has a southeast aspect. There is an external chimney stack at the southwest end and an internal chimney stack at the northeast end. The cottage is a single storey with attics. It features a boarded door with a diamond-shaped pane from the 20th century, two double-hung sash windows with nine lights, and a former shop that extends to the edge of the road, which has a catslide roof and now includes one 20th-century casement window. Additionally, there are three gabled dormers, each with a 19th-century casement window.
