Description

Dunose Cottage is a mid-19th century restaurant and guest house, originally built as a house. It is constructed from Isle of Wight stone rubble and features a half-hipped thatched roof with a cruciform plan. The building has one storey and attics in the gable ends, with a window arrangement of 1:4. The windows are casements with leaded lights. The front of the cottage has a projecting gable at the center, adorned with fretted bargeboards and a two-light oriel window supported on a bracket. The ground floor includes two lancet windows with leaded lights and end Diocletian windows. There is a door on the left side of the central gable, which has a modern slate-roofed weather porch. The left side elevation features a four-light canted bay. There is a 20th-century cottage attached to the rear, which is not of special interest.
