Description
Well House Cottages are a pair of cottages that were originally one house, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. The building features a cross wing and has a lobby entrance. It is constructed with a timber frame and plastered exterior, topped with pantiled roofs. The structure is two storeys high with an attic, and has scattered windows, including 19th-century casements and a dormer casement with a cat-slide pantiled roof. The doors are made of planks, and there are red brick stacks on the ridge, which have moulded chimneys.
