Description

Inglenook Cottage is an early 18th-century cottage constructed from rendered clay lump with a thatched roof. The building has two storeys, featuring a door located to the left of centre beneath a segmental arch. There are three renewed casements on the ground floor and three on the first floor, all in original openings, with the ground floor windows also having segmental arches. The cottage has a gabled roof with a rebuilt axial stack positioned to the right of centre. The south wall is made of brick and is weatherboarded in the gable head.
