Description
Queen Anne Cottage, formerly known as Caistor Cottage, is a house dating to 1729, built for a member of the Cogman family. It is constructed of red brick with renewed plain tile roof coverings and rebuilt gable parapets. The original single-range structure has been extended to the rear on the left side in the 20th century. The house has two bays and two storeys, with a platband detail. There are internal brick stacks at each end. A central doorway features a boarded door, and a datestone above the door is inscribed with “A / 1729.” Two three-light leaded casement windows are visible on each floor; the ground-floor windows have cambered arches. The left return displays brick tumbling, an eaves band, and a platband, with leaded cross windows on both the ground and first floors. An eroded datestone is present on the main facade. The right return is similar to the left return but without windows and a datestone.
