Description

Bayleaf Cottage is a house dating from the 18th century, altered in the 19th century. It is constructed of stone rubble, colourwashed, with a slate roof and a brick chimney stack at the right end. The house is L-shaped. The front, facing the garden, has one gabled end, featuring 19th-century casement windows, a 20th-century metal casement and a 20th-century door. A 20th-century lean-to addition to the front has a cambered architrave. The rear elevation has a gable with kneelers and 20th-century windows. The rear of the house retains one original mullioned window, consisting of two lights.
