Description
Kingsmoor Cottage is a 17th-century house that features a timber frame with black weatherboards on the gables and some plastered areas. The roof is steeply pitched, covered with peg tiles, and has a central red brick chimney. On the first storey, there are two sets of three casement windows, while the ground storey has a gabled porch with matching casements on either side. To the right, there is a single-storey, ridged, gabled extension that contributes to the L-plan shape of the building.
